------- Comment #4 from [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2008-08-24 18:10 -------
By reading ACPI spec ACPI Extensions for Display Adapters B.6.2,
we can get this, "Each brightness level is represented by a number between 0
and 100, and can be thought of as a percentage. For example, 50 can be 50%
power consumption or 50% brightness, as defined by the OEM."
So this is clearly a violation of ACPI spec, which we won't fix in Linux/ACPI.
Please check if there are any new BIOS releases that have fixed the problem.
