Could the applet write the value at boot, or when changed within the applet? Several applets store settings - look in "/home/tc/.jivelite/userpath/settings". Of course, you would have to save the settings to the SD card for these changes to be retained after reboot. For example, when I make changes in CustomClock, if I want them to be retained, then I use the PiCorePlayer applet to save settings to the SD card. An applet to control the brightness would be AWESOME. I looked a little yesterday to see how the Touch does it, but my applet/lua skills are very limited. I did find bits and pieces - looks like the "main" Touch lua (don't recall what it's called/where its located...) has the unique Touch configurations, and it seems to specify the brigthtness controls. The Touch is different since it has an ambient light sensor. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tcutting's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17402 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103330 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
