Description
quote "i think we should make configurable whether the DisplayResource? prevents dimming" mickey
The question raised was, should the display dimm during call. As we had diverging opinions mickey said it should be configurable to begin with.

Sounds like there's no problem then?
The Display resource controls whether the display dimms or not. CPU resource controls (auto) suspend. So if your application wants the Display to stay on just request the Display resource.

I'm along with Daniel here. We have the CPU resource to control suspend and the display resource to control dimming.
If you think more is needed it would be good to explain your use-case.

I slowly remember what we talked about. It was about which idlenotifier level is actually be blocked by the Display resource, whether it is allowed to enter idle_dim or not. I still agree that this should be configurable, it's easy enough to do that.

fixed in 7e1c1a3e2eebbcaefdb35f5b56342e7c727a576e, to allow for dimming, set:
[fsodevice.kernel_idle] display_resource_allows_dim = 1

So what are you proposing? What exactly is the problem?
