           Summary: no sysfs backlight interface on lifebook p7010
           Product: ACPI
           Version: 2.5
     KernelVersion: Any kernel version
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: Power-Video
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Latest working kernel version:
None

Distribution:
Any (I can perform tests and further debugging on Ubuntu 8.04, or possibly
archlinux)

Hardware Environment:
Fujitsu-Siemens Lifebook p7010, intel 855GM.

Problem Description:

I first filed this bug at freedesktop against hal
(http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12638), but the hal guys suggested
I take it over here. Basically, the problem is that hal cannot get/set
backlight on my laptop since there is no sysfs interface to deal with that.
Using Fn-F6/Fn-F7, I can manually change backlight.

lshal | grep panel

returns nothing. I'll attach the output of dmidecode.

Please give me more information on how to debug this issue. Many thanks!
