Annoyances In The Light Setting

[xjqian]

this has been in my mind for quite a while but I always forgot to post:

1. on Battery Power->suspend after: the maximum is 30 min, which in some cases doesn't cut the deal like when i'm having a long talk with friend over kphone. Reminding myself to hit a button every 30 min is a stretch of my memory capability. Are there any way to lengthen it or, even better, offering option to disable it?

2.on External power->trying to uncheck both and "ok", I got "You cannot uncheck both 'screen saver' and 'Suspend after' settings". The relevant senario is when i want to use my 6k as an apache server and stay on for several days in the dock.

Any help on work arounds? If fixes should be on a more fundamental level, is the new guylhem kernel/rom able to fix these?

Xjqian,

I think you want to look at /home/zaurus/Settings/qpe.conf

You should find a section that looks like this:

Code: [Select]

[Screensaver]
Brightness = 51
Brightness_AC = 102
Dim = 1
Interval = 300
Interval_AC_00 = 900
Interval_AC_01 = 1800
Interval_AC_02 = 3600
Interval_AC_03 = 7200
Interval_AC_04 = 10800
Interval_AC_05 = 14400
Interval_AC_06 = 21600
Interval_AC_07 = 28800
Interval_AC_08 = 36000
Interval_AC_09 = 43200
Interval_AC_ScreenSaver = 1800
Interval_AC_idx = 9
Interval_Dim = 15
Interval_LightOff = 45
LightOff = 1
Saver_OnOff = 0
ScreensaverImage = /home/QtPalmtop/pics/Zaurus_logo.png
Suspend_OnOff = 1
As you can see there are quite a fiew values to mess up (I mean change). I did notice that after setting these values on my SL-5500, running the Light App would set them all back. So make sure you make a backup of your modified qpe.conf file.

I hope this helps,

Craig...
