Intel ss4200 brightness tool
Usage: ss4200bright <number 0-255>
Does not work if the lm85 kernel hwmon module is loaded and using the i2c device.
If you are rolling your own kernel, make sure lm85 is a Module.
Requires i2c device module(i2c-dev).
Make sure to double check the i2c device of the ss4200 LED device before compiling ss4200bright.
On Fedora 18-22 with kernels 3.9-4.2 i2c device is /dev/i2c-6
On Intel/EMC firmware i2c device was /dev/i2c-0
init.d/ss4200led - init script for setting up leds
ss4200bright in (/usr/local/bin)
STARTUP:
set's brightness to 5 (very dim)
SHUTDOWN:
set's brightness to 255 (high)
NOTES:
kernel module leds_ss4200 crashes when loading sometime after 3.9/3.10 up to 4.2
so there is no way now to control individual leds: blue, amber, on, off, blink
init.d/ss4200hdparm - init script for setting drive parameters
disables drive APM hdparm -B 255
disables drive spin down hdparm -S 0
no longer tested/used
init.d/varlogdirs - init script to buiding /var/log folder structure
this script builds skeleton files and folders for /var/log on Fedora 18/19
on shutdown this script rsync's /var/log to /var/.log
i.e. assumes that /var/log is tmpfs.
yes I know that this overwrites log files from the last clean shutdown.
