Well, I finally got around to upgrading to the newest one there (got
some more memory for the laptop and had to reboot anyhow)...

I also did some debugging...

The Fn f7 (dim) and Fn-f8 (brighten) and Fn-F4 (monitor) all work fine
when I first boot up. They also work fine if I start X with no DRM. If
I start X with drm, then they stop working and won't work again until
I reboot.

Any ideas? Could be a XFree86 version problem?

I am running RedHat limbo with XFree86-4.2.0-56 + your drm_reinit
modules.
