--- Comment #18 from ykzhao <[email protected]> 2009-07-20 03:26:19 --- The patch from Matthew is shipped in the 2.6.30-rc1. >commit 74a365b3f354fafc537efa5867deb7a9fadbfe27 Author: Matthew Garrett <[email protected]> Date: Thu Mar 19 21:35:39 2009 +0000 ACPI: Populate DIDL before registering ACPI video device on Intel In this patch only when the box is booted with KMS enabled, it will register the ACPI video driver. Otherwise the ACPI video driver won't be bound with the ACPI video device. But the above dependency is too strict. And on many laptops there is no ACPI backlight I/F if the box is booted without KMS. It is not convenient. So Matthew sent another patch to fix this issue. This is shipped in the 2.6.30-rc4. >commit d770e3cfe5a274a343d896b2cc1646af85646fbc Author: Matthew Garrett <[email protected]> Date: Wed Apr 15 21:46:36 2009 +0100 drm/i915: Register ACPI video even when not modesetting In this patch it will register the ACPI video driver even when the box is booted with KMS disabled. And if KMS is not enabled on HP6910 laptop, the ACPI opregion won't be initialized correctly. And it will trigger the OOPS as happened on the laptop in bug 11259.
