[PATCH v2 16/29] ACPI: video: Add Nvidia WMI EC brightness control detection

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



On some new laptop designs a new Nvidia specific WMI interface is present
which gives info about panel brightness control and may allow controlling
the brightness through this interface when the embedded controller is used
for brightness control.

When this WMI interface is present and indicates that the EC is used,
then this interface should be used for brightness control.
