Hi,

Since a lot of users are asking me about backlight control in NVClock I
decided to post here myself. Since the discovery of the register on a
Sony laptop I have added support for various other laptops from
different vendors. Next to Sony models the code appears to work on a
HP/Compaq 8510W, Samsung Q210/Q310/R600 and a Zepto 9600M laptop. The HP
and Zepto model use MXM ('mobile pci-express card which can be
replaced') which could mean that more MXM boards use this register.

I plan to release a new version of NVClock soon. What sort of issues are
you guys still seeing? I'll see if I can do something about flckering
(caused by bios dumping) and the need for a home directory. The bios
info is needed in a lot of cases for instance for proper temperature
reading and other features but I'll see what I can do about it. Most
likely I will try to read the bios from a copy inside videoram instead
of the rom when it is in videoram.

What other issues are you guys seeing?

Thanks,
Thunderbird
