How does this interact with triggers? With manually setting
brightness? Are the pattern generators independend for the LEDs?

Can you generate white breathing pattern? If so, how?

How do you select between normal and breathing modes?

I'd specify times in miliseconds or something, this is way too
hardware specific.

Now... functionality like this is common between many LED
controllers. N900 could do this kind of "breathing", too, and it also
supports other patterns.

I believe we need interface common between different LED controllers.

And I guess it would be easiest if you dropped this part from initial
merge.

Thanks and best regards,
