It would be difficult, radeontool need write access to /dev/mem, which on my 'sid' is crw-r- 1 root kmem so only root can change that. I could do a SETUID binary executable only by root and video group, but I'm not sure we could trust it. And, btw, you can do it yourself with dpkg-statoverride. > And maybe you could add support for setting the compaq m300/m500 > backlight luminosity (although I'm not sure if that is Compaq specific or > genral > for radeon), as implemented in the m300bl[1] program? > > [1] http://wwwbode.cs.tum.edu/~acher/m300/ This is not related, since it's an utility that control the backlight level via the on-board SuperIO chip, while radeontool uses the internal controls to switch the backlight on and off.

Hi Luigi! You wrote: > You can find (and review) a preliminary package at > http://people.debian.org/~luigi/radeontool Tahnks for packaging this! Any chance you could make it suid safe and executable bij users in the video group? And maybe you could add support for setting the compaq m300/m500 backlight luminosity (although I'm not sure if that is Compaq specific or genral for radeon), as implemented in the m300bl[1] program?
