Several hours later and I manage to find out the extended commands for the LW11G dimmer unit. Can't find these anywhere else mentioned on the web, so for future generations:

# Extended X10 control of LW11G dimmer
#
# Unlike other L*11* modules the LW11G
# seems to only respond to code 53.  Set the data to
#
# 0 = immediate off
# 255 = immediate on
# 1-254 = slowly dim or bright to that level, turns on if
not already


A discussion about XML status output in Apache came up this week and so I pointed out a mod_status_xml I wrote a month or two ago. It would be great to get something like this module (or a patch to mod_status) into the core as once you can get XML status output you can do all sorts of cool things like historic graphs, real time graphs, and so on. Kind of like the stuff from 1995 that graphed server status but now using SVG.
