Hi!

The indicator 3-color LED in mainline kernel seem to be a bit too
bright. .. more bright to look at comfortably. I believe it is also
brighter than in original maemo... I believe I've seen note somewhere
that hardware may allow too much current to the 3-color led damaging
hardware... but I can't find the link now.

Does anyone know more?

Thanks,
									Pavel

Safe current limits for the leds are configured in the DTS
(led-cur and max-cur) and can be checked in sysfs. I remember
testing the safety limits when I added them to DT, but the
driver has changed a bit since then.
