how goes it?
<erysdren>
i'm in USA
<coolcoder613_mac>
Is this the first time you are using Haiku, NZ-Fjordlander?
<NZ-Fjordlander>
No. I try it out every so often. I was very briefly the NZ distributor for BeOS right before the free edition got released.
<NZ-Fjordlander>
Along with Caldera Linux before that disappeared
<erysdren>
that's awesome!!

BeOS was amazing on my older hardware at the time. 1 .AVI struggled to play on Windows. The demo with 5 playing simultaneously on BeOS smoothly on the same hardware sold me!
<NZ-Fjordlander>
I only had dial up internet at the time so the lack of a proper network stack was not an issue.
<NZ-Fjordlander>
Haiku has come along way!
<coolcoder613_mac>
Haiku is great on my older hardware :)
<coolcoder613_mac>
Older is relative, this is a dual core pentium with 3GB of RAM
<coolcoder613_mac>
But... older than me :shrug:
<NZ-Fjordlander>
Very relative lol. I'm running in virtualbox on top of PopOS (Ubuntu Linux derivative)
<erysdren>
i believe the haiku project is just barely older than me

so I'm making progress with fixing up the work that adds driver support for ACPI backlight control
TomSwift has joined #haiku
<realtaraharris>
the problem I'm having is that while I can set the brightness level using _BCM, the brightness level doesn't actually change
<realtaraharris>
I suspect that the issue is that with the DPMS mode set on the display
<realtaraharris>
my question: I'm running the framebuffer driver, and I'm trying to figure out where and how the DPMS mode is set
<realtaraharris>
the ACPI spec says that if the display is set in mode D0, it will ignore brightness changes from _BCM
<realtaraharris>
the spec also says that it won't accept any values not specified in the list of values returned by _BCL, so I added some code that dumps the output and confirmed that my system (ThinkPad T490) accepts brightness integers from 0-100

realtaraharris: fb driver depends mostly on what the EFI loader could set up
<waddlesplash>
can EFI framebuffer protocol change DPMS? (I don't know)
<realtaraharris>
haha I guess I'm gonna keep bashing on it until I find out :joy:
<waddlesplash>
VBE/FP brightness control. however I don't know if we found any VESA BIOSes that actually support that feature.
<waddlesplash>
realtaraharris: oh, there's a comment on that change:
<waddlesplash>
"For modern displays (possibly including laptops using eDP), another way to set the brightness would be through DDC/CI. This uses the same DDC bus we already use for getting EDID info, and allows to configure the display settings (brightness, contrast, etc). This one is implemented by modern displays, in part because it is required by Microsoft to get a "Windows compatible" approval IIRC."
<waddlesplash>
doesn't look like anybody followed up about that though
<waddlesplash>
I don't think EFI can read/write EDID under RuntimeServices, only in BootServices, though, so that may again be only relevant for VESA or one of the per-device modesetting drivers?
<realtaraharris>
wow, thanks! I'm gonna try looking through all that stuff you just linked. might take me a few days

is there a way to copy files from multiple $sourceDir's? cp $sourceDir2/hinted/ttf/*.ttf ${FONTDIR} goes up to cp $sourceDir62/hinted/ttf/*.ttf ${FONTDIR} atm
