            Bug ID: 426883
           Summary: Please revert smooth brightness transition patch.
                    Epilepsy risk.
           Product: Powerdevil
           Version: 5.19.90
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
          Reporter: pepk...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

So, with 5.20 brightness is meant to transition smoothly. Problem is that not
all laptops will do it in a smooth manner, for example my T430 flickers a lot.
It only adds unnecessary delay and makes my laptop seem like it's lagging.

Maybe it looks nice on some "modern" laptops, who knows.

Also it is smoothed out even after idle period, which really makes my laptop
feel like it's a laggy pile of crap. And it's not.

I would go as far as suggest that there should be epilepsy warning while
logging in to plasma!
