--- Comment #26 from Aaron Lu <[email protected]> --- If the change request is from firmware, then the patch should be able to handle it as what it does is to ignore all firmware requests if the acpi_video interface is not exposed(achieved by adding video.use_native_backlight=1 currently, but we are making this default in v3.16). Actually, I think solving it in user space is also a good idea: the GUI can provide user with options to specify which backlight level he wants when AC plug/unplug and when such events fired, the firmware will unconditionally set a level but then user space will set the pre-specified level. Also works I think. Anyway, let's try the kernel patch first and if the maintainer doesn't like it, we can try to convince GUI developers. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Graph Databases - Download FREE O'Reilly Book "Graph Databases" is the definitive new guide to graph databases and their applications.
