That's great news. I accept that it's impractical to port back to
earlier hardware, but it means it'll stop being a problem eventually.
(Entirely unrelatedly, have you got any idea why several D-series
Latitudes with Intel graphics switch off the backlight on lid close and
never switch it back on again? It happens under Windows if you boot in
safe mode, so it's not Linux specific...)
