Hi All, Here is v2 of my rewrite / cleanup of the acpi-video (and platform/x86) backlight interface selection logic.
The major change in v2 of this set are 2 changes to the patch titled "acpi-video-detect: video: Make video_detect code part of the video module": 1) The __setup call for the acpi_backlight= handling is moved to acpi/util.c as __setup may only be used by code which is always builtin 2) video.c is renamed to acpi_video.c so that it can be combined with video_detect.c into video.ko These 2 changes result in the backlight kernel commandline options after this patch-set being 100% compatible with the old options, with the exception of the removal of the video.use_native_backlight option as that now is folded into acpi_backlight=[video|vendor|native|none] rather then having 2 options which influence each other in interesting ways. Besides that there is a small change to the dell-laptop port to the new API removing an unnecessary #ifdef ACPI. Regards, Hans
