Sorry the "ditto" meant I didn't thing about PWM as much as I should have. The situation for PWM is a little different to LED. That's mostly because we decided not to clutter the LED code with "num-interpolated-steps". The PWM code implements the default-brightness-level as an index into the brightness array *after* it has been expanded using interpolation. In other words today Linux treats the default-brightness-level more like[1]. description: The default brightness level. When num-interpolated-steps is not set this is simply an index into the array defined by the "brightness-levels" property. If num-interpolated-steps is set the brightness array will be expanded by interpolation before we index to get a default level. This is the best I have come up with so far... but I concede it still lacks elegance. Daniel. [1] I don't know my way round the BSD code bases to be sure what they do...
