Hi,

I've tested this with the acer_ec.pl File. 

Please find the following two files attached.

Here is a detailed Report what I've done.
  1. Installed the latest Nvidia driver for gentoo (Version: 304.43)
     (I had the proprietary drivers installed all the time)
     List of the loaded modules:
     Module                  Size  Used by
     nvidia              11175245  41 
     ehci_hcd               29013  0 
     atl1c                  26803  0 
  2. ran the perl script with the following command
     --> perl acer_ec.pl regs > before_change.txt
  3. ran the echo command to change the brightness
     --> cd /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0
     --> echo 3 > brightness
  4. ran the perl script again with the following command
     --> perl acer_ec.pl regs > after_change_to_value_3.txt

The brightness of the screen didn't change at all.

Do you think that this is a problem of the Nvidia Drivers or is it a problem of
any other chipset of the mainboard. (Sorry for this question, but I'am not so
firm with this details.)
