Hi,

I noticed today, when I plug my laptop into a power source, it automatically makes the brightness full on the device.

How can I make my N900 do the same, so for example when plugged into my car, it goes full brightness, then returns to original setting when unplugged?

Anyone feel like coding this? :P

Thanks.

Shepherd may well be able to do this when it sees the light of day... sounds like exactly the sort of thing it was designed for.

Sounds like a great feature for the Simple Brighness App

Could you give a short description in the topic title next time?

This already existed for previous tablets; goes by the name of "acmonitor".

It'd be trivial for someone to port it to Fremantle - the same GConf key is changed and it'd just need to be made to listen to the charger property from the BME UDI in HAL instead of requesting the state from a BME method call that doesn't exist in Fremantle's BME.

Hell, you can do it with ugliness of dbus-scripts and directly echo'ing brightness values.
