Subject: Status of native backlight patchset?
Date: Sat, 19 Mar 2011 14:17:16 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4D84ACDC.7010904@fedoraproject.org> (raw)
Hi,
Is there an updated version of the native backlight patchset that
Matthew posted in November?
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.acpi.devel/48145
On my Sony Vaio Y, Intel Ironlake/Arrandale integrated graphics, I'm
having problems setting my backlight level through
/sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0 -- all inputs seem to be ignored:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34417
and it looks like the same issue that is being tracked by Ubuntu's Kamal
Mostafa, based on Matthew's patchset:
https://launchpad.net/~kamalmostafa/+archive/linux-kamal-mjgbacklight
I've not been able to find a patchset newer than the one from November,
and if I apply patches 1 & 2 (skipping 3 & 4 because they don't apply to
i915), I get a kernel with broken KMS. Should I apply #5 as well? I'll
wait to see if there's a newer patchset before trying that, though.
Matthew, do you have a public kernel git tree I can clone from?
Thanks,
--
