Subject: drivers for Lenovo 3000 series?
Date: Sun, 12 Apr 2009 14:51:09 +0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <d0cc17060904120051h11e44079u5cf8174466b4e71e@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi all,

I have a Lenovo 3000 G430 [1] which seems to work ok except for
brightness control

but from [2]:
"... The ACPI and EC firmware are completely incompatible with
ThinkPads, and ibm-acpi/thinkpad-acpi will not support it. The Lenovo
3000 are not ThinkPads."

so, what do you suggest? create a new driver for Lenovo 3000 series?
Can I use thinkpad_acpi.c as a start or should I start from scratch?

Thanks
Andika Triwidada
