------- Comment #13 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-01-11 15:13 ------- _INI presence check works in exactly opposite way, -ENODEV is returned if it is not present, which is true on your machine (it does not have any _INI methods depending on EC region). Thus, init of EC could be (and should be) done after all ACPI devices and regions are initialized. Patch from #9627 does exactly that. If patch is applied, "video" driver finds brightness controls and is able to change it with /sys interface. It also disables BIOS control of the brightness, so function keys stop to work. If the patch is not applied, "video" driver is not able to attach and does not disable BIOS control over brightness. With the patch applied, did you try to unload "video" driver as I asked? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
