+.Sh NAME
+.Nm acpivga
+.Nd ACPI Display Adapter and Output Devices
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "acpivga* at acpi?"
+.Cd "acpiout* at acpivga?"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides generic support for brightness control and output switching,
+through
+.Tn ACPI
+video extensions.
+The
+.Tn ACPI
+specification requires that systems containing a built-in display adapter
+implement these extensions in their
+.Tn ACPI
+BIOS.
+.Pp
+The driver handles brightness hotkeys and output switch hotkeys.
+In addition, the following
+.Xr sysctl 8
+read/write variables are provided (when hardware support is available):
+.Bl -tag -width Ds
+.It Va hw.acpi.acpivga0.policy
+BIOS switch policy.
+Accepted values range from 0 to 7.
+For more information, refer to the documentation of the _DOS method,
+in Section B.4.1 of the
+.Tn ACPI
+specification (revision 4.0a).
+.It Va hw.acpi.acpiout0.brightness
+Brightness level.
+Typical values range from 0 to 100, but any integer value is accepted (the
+driver uses the closest brightness level supported by the device).
+.El
+.Pp
+Please note, however, that future versions of
+.Nm
+may remove these
+.Xr sysctl 8
+variables without prior notice.
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr acpi 4 ,
+.Xr sysctl 8
+.Sh STANDARDS
+The
+.Nm
+driver supports the
+.Em ACPI Extensions for Display Adapters
+given in Appendix B of the
+.Tn ACPI
+specification.

+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Nm
+driver appeared in
+.Nx 6.0 .
+.Sh AUTHORS
+.An Gr\('egoire Sutre
+.Aq gsu...@netbsd.org
+.Sh CAVEATS
+The
+.Nm
+driver only supports PCI/PCI-X/PCI-E display adapters.
+.Pp
+Many
+.Tn ACPI
+BIOSes implement only part of the
+.Tn ACPI
+video extensions.
+In particular, display output switching often does not work.
+.Pp
+Brightness level should be controlled via
+.Xr wsconsctl 8
+instead of
+.Xr sysctl 8 .
