https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D285448 Bug ID: 285448 Summary: [NEW PORT] sysutils/framework-kmod: kernel module for improved frame.work hardware support Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: freebsd@ny-central.org Created attachment 258700 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D258700&action= =3Dedit ports patch poudriere log will follow shortly... --- description --- framework-kmod is a kernel module, which provides one key functionality at the moment - dynamically dimming the screen when the computer is not used, and turning up brightness again once activity by the user is detected. It keeps track of input signals through evdev(4) and after a set timeout period, in which no input was detected, reduces screen brightness. Upon user input, it immediately increases screen brightness back to previous levels. Brightness levels for dimmed and bright state, as well as timeout settings (the length of time that needs to pass without any input signal before dimming the screen) can be customized through sysctls. Those values can be set differently for when the laptop runs on power outlet, or on battery. The module requires drm-kmod drivers to be loaded in advance. It is not a general purpose screen dimming driver - if you are using a full featured desktop environment like Gnome or KDE, you will be better off using its built in screen dimming function. This driver is designed primarily for use with tty consoles or simple window managers like suckless' dwm, or i3. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
