I keep seeing people say this, but I don't think it's brought at all.

iirc (at least for dark samus' version), screen brightness is on the 3rd level. Is Delebile's version brighter?

Right now the only way is to modify the source (screen_init.c) from 39 to desired value and compile yourself.

So I suppose I have to change this line (#define BRIGHTNESS 0x39) to #define BRIGHTNESS 0x00 in order to have a level 1 brightness ?

No idea whether 00 is none or lowest, so IDK. I'd try with 1C (half) just to be safe. Should be about 1.5 brightness level if 39 is 3.

OK, so I just recompiled with BRIGHTNESS 0x13 (39 divided by 3 = 13). And yeah, it seems it's 1 brightness level.
So I suppose:
-Level 1: 0x13
-Level 2: 0x26
-Level 3: 0x39
-Level 4: 0x4C
-Level 5: 0x5F

Actually...
13*4 = 0x4C
13*5 = 0x5F
But the rest of what you said is correct :)
I wonder if other brightness levels than the normal 1-5 ones will work. Especially higher brightness levels (not that level 5 isn't high enough, except maybe in direct sunlight)

    It's a locked down Linux distro basically

    I think the only custom hardware is to do with the SSD and a security chip
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Probably combined in one chip
