</div>The main problem I used to have is when powerdevil changes the brightness,<br>
especially when e.g. a TV is connected to the system. Kind of useless then.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I thought about exactly this case. But if you disable the OSD in "passive" actions, you might also miss that the computer is about to power off your display (the brightness goes down every once in a while and when it's at 0, DPMS will kick soon...by default). So I guess you do want some kind of notification on external TV in case you left your power management enabled.</div>
