I'd like to turn off the backlight when I'm away for the day, but leave unsuspended so I can connect back from work via the cable modem.
There was a similar question last summer and the suggestion to switch to CRT; something like that would be fine with me, except that the fn-f8 that would appear to accomplish this on my Dell I7K doesn't do anything. Also, the Battery-Operated mini-HOWTO seems dated and not always applicable to debian (e.g. no update call in /etc/inittab), so any suggestions for better advice on reducing syncing and flushing intervals w/o a full suspend would also be appreciated. Thanks in advance. PS please CC - lists.debian seems to be ignoreing my requests to re-subscribe after my recent move. If it matters, I'm running mostly potato with a little woody for flavor (but still Xfree3.6 and the steveh IIRC patched Mach64 server) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
