Comment:
On B1, build 536, using the new brightness up/down keys (first two in
rightmost bar) to change
the brightness. It doesn't let me set the brightness down to 1 (which I
can do via /sys/class/backlight/dcon-bl/brightness). The lowest available
setting seems to be 2, which
probably burns significantly more power than 1. Since the hardware can do
it, and it saves
power, it seems foolish to leave out a user interface that makes it
accessible.
