Bug ID: 485437
Summary: Powerdevil restricts the minimum monitor brightness to
1%, causing it to be unable to reach the lowest
possible brightness
Classification: Plasma
Product: Powerdevil
Version: 6.0.3
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: zvova7...@gmail.com
CC: m...@ratijas.tk, natalie_clar...@yahoo.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
This was introduced in KDE6. I know the Powerdevil team is trying to prevent
some displays from turning off completely, but it also prevents other displays
from reaching the minimum brightness. I think this is the wrong approach for
Powerdevil because if the driver implements this, that's how it should work.
Looking at the experience on MacOS, they allow the brightness to be fully
turned off. My display doesn't fully turn off the brightness when its value is
set to zero, and with the 1% restriction, I can't achieve the minimum
brightness on my computer, which is bad for nighttime work.
