Didn't get any response yet, hence copying LKML for a broader audience. On 11/04/2011 03:36 PM, Daniel Mack wrote:
I'm facing a bug on a Samsung X20 notebook which features an i915 chipset (output of 'lspci -v' attached). The effect is that setting the backlight to odd values causes the value to be misinterpreted. Harald Hoyer (cc:) had the same thing on a Netbook (I don't recall which model it was). So this will turn the backlight to full brightness: # cat /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/max_brightness 29750 # echo 29750 > /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness However, writing 29749 will turn the display backlight off, and 29748 appears to be the next valid lower value. It seems like the IS_PINEVIEW() branch in drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_panel.c:intel_panel_actually_set_backlight() could do the right thing, but this code is written for an entirely different model, right? I can reproduce this on 3.0 and 3.1 vanilla as well as with the current mainline git. Let me know if there is any patch that I can test. Thanks, Daniel
