Len, since this is being tracked as a regression, please pull from git://repo.or.cz/linux-2.6/linux-acpi-2.6/ibm-acpi-2.6.git branch acpi-release to receive the following patches: ACPI: ibm-acpi: fix initial status of backlight device ACPI: ibm-acpi: improve backlight power handling against v2.6.21-rc3. They are obvious bug-fixes, and address the above regression plus a related problem in ibm-acpi backlight handling. If we get these two patches into mainline, I will proceed to rediff the pending 2.6.22 ibm-acpi stuff for acpi-test, so that you don't have any extra work when the time comes to merge the ibm-acpi queue into acpi-test. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
