    hello, just a quick question. Not sure if its been asked before, if so, sorry for being redundant. Anyways, I find it annoying that the screen brightness automatically dims on idle. Is there a way to disable this?

    thanks very much for answering.

    I don't know if this is the cause, but there's a setting to dim the the display after a certain amount of time in Power Manager. Perhaps setting it to never might fix it.
