Don't blame Nico for the one in the -pxa patches. That
one is my fault ;)
Mmh, can't find that post. Maybe it's on its way...
Anyway, I googled this:
http://russ.dhs.org:8000/files/tuxpatches/backlight-2.4.16-rmk1-2
Looks nicer than what I've been using. I wouldn't call it
backlight though. Backlight is a device specific term for
illumination, isn't it?
Cheers,
