Comment 69 for bug 251252

Luckilly for both of you, Launcpad *does* hide e-mail addresses from anyone
that is not logged in, and it does this automatically. Øyvind, until I
logged in, instead of your e-mail address I saw "<email address hidden>".

Back on-topic:

1) I would like to test this out but am not confident in my compiling
abilities; I will wait until the appropriate packages are ready.

2) @ MattJ: Your current non-blinking status is actually "not as intended";
one of the fixes here is making the LED blink like it is "supposed" to. As
to whether or not it *should* blink, when Øyvind said that blinking was the
default, he meant from the manufacturer. Their intention is that the LED
would blink during transfer. As such, under Linux, the LED should blink
during transfer. I agree with you in that this could be an option, however
this adds more or less un-needed complexity. You could always make the
relevent changes in the source and re-compile for yourself. Having an actual
option is only worth it if there are a lot of people that would prefer the
LED not to blink.
