Subject: [RESEND PATCH 0/7] ACPI video: cleanups and fixes for the recent buggy _BQC/_BCL/_BCM BIOSes
Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2009 16:56:56 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1236848216.2807.69.camel@rzhang-dt> (raw)

Hi, all,

here is the patch set I made recently, including some cleanups and fixes
for the Thinkpad/Asus laptops with buggy _BQC/_BCL/_BCM implementation.

The first two patches checks if ACPI video driver fails to set/get the
current brightness level, which is not done before.

patch 3/4/5/6 are used to fix four different problems.

1. the brightness levels when machine is on AC/Battery are not exported
   by _BCL.
2. The supported brightness levels are reversed in the _BCL method.
3. Index values are used in _BQC/_BCL/_BCM method.
4. _BCQ method is implemented instead of _BQC

patch 7 add a warning message when _BQC is not implemented.

Any comments are welcome.

thanks,
rui
