Hi all!
Is there a way to tell if TDE has just turned on the display after sending it to sleep? Maybe a hook, a program, whatever?
Reason is that on a T460 the backlight control needs to write the brigtness value twize to restore it to its inital value after DPMS turned the display off, otherwise it's at ~ 50% and the user needs to increase the value manually - which is espectially anoying on these Notebooks when the primary function of the function keys is "be a function key".
My workaround for now is "xset dpms 0 0 0: xset s off" - which does a fine job in keeping the display lit, but TDE cannot send the display to suspend as this also needs written 2 times to actually work. The fun part is that when the display is fully lit then the the user only need one write cyle to change the brighness.
