It should say that the > variable now contains "1". Does it? Yes, it does. I'm loading thinkpad_acpi with brightness_enable=3. The first time it is loaded is *before* the ACPI video module load/unload. At that time, it reports NBCF=0 both before and after probe. It also reports "standard ACPI backlight interface available, not loading native one." Then I unload and reload thinkpad_acpi *after* loading and unloading video. At this ti,e it reports NBCF=1 both before and after probe. It also reports "standard ACPI backlight interface available, not loading native one." And I now find that there are no blacklight interfaces available at all, either in /proc/acpi/ibm or in /sys/class/backlight. I hope this helps you; I'm pretty lost by now. Anything else you'd like me to try? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
