OldAdamUser2:
I'd like to try "overclocking" screen brightness on my eee 900 as I can do in default Xandros Easy. There, the command is sudo setpci -s 00:02.1 f4.b=ff

In Tiny Core this produces a "command not found" response.

Any ideas?

roberts:
Using Appbrowser Connect->Search
enter pci
Select pci-utils.tcz

Click on files and you will see setpci

OldAdamUser2:
Thanks, Robert. It works perfectly. Now I can read ebooks with Tiny Core outside!

h-munster:

--- Code: ---setpci -s 00:02.1 f4.b=55
--- End code ---

Tried this command on my Dell Mini 9, but it didn't work (pci-utilz is installed and setpci runs).

The Mini 9 uses the Intel 945GME chip, and I think that these settings are correct for that chip.

I tried variations on these settings:

--- Code: ---setpci -s 00:02.1 f4.b=33
setpci -s 00:02.0 f4.b=55
setpci -s 00:02.1 f5.b=55
--- End code ---

Nothing worked.

Something must be enabled that is preventing the command to take effect -- perhaps something in 915resolution or something at a lower level?

Anybody have any clues on what to try next?

OldAdamUser2:
For what it's worth, I run 915resolution on my Eee 900, and setpci works fine in boosting brightness for me.
