Here are the video patches as refreshed in the ACPI test branch.
(there are a couple of merge conflicts, since there are other
 patches in the acpi test tree that touch the same files)

I've tested my T61 (Intel Graphics, and thus IGD support)
and found that these patches do no harm.

in all cases, I load i915, video and thinkpad_acpi

2.6.27:
Brightness hotkeys display controls in X,
but have no actual effect on brightness
/sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0 has no effect
/sys/class/backlight/acpi_video1 works

2.6.28-rc3+:
Brightness hotkeys display controls in X,
and correctly control brightness
/sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0 works
/sys/class/backlight/acpi_video1 works

2.6.28-rc3+ with these patches:
same as 2.6.28-rc3+, except
/sys/class/backlight/acpi_video1 does not exist.

thanks,
-Len
