I've tried it by the near full moon, and I don't find the text readable. I can just make out the brightest stars on the display with the nightsky program running. A child may do better. I might do better with longer dark adaption. I think a more experienced astronomer should have a go. ;-) The F6 lowest brightness backlight is level 5 out of 15, reducing it to 1 out of 15 with "echo 1 > /sys/class/backlight/dcon-bl/brightness" ... it is still too bright for night viewing. Turning the keyboard LEDs on and the DCON backlight to full, the B-Test-1 unit makes a passable diffuse lightsource for seeing what not to tread on in the dark. -- James Cameron mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://quozl.netrek.org/ _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.laptop.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
