Brightness).

I can ACK that my HP had a similar typo / feature with its intel based
video:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 
945GM/GMS/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)

The _BQC is absent, but a strange _BCQ is there - which looks to give
the correct functionality.

The ONLY place I can find any reference to _BCQ is in a couple of
Windows Vista design documents about making display brightness work with
Vista.

Thank you Microsoft, for that typo - presuming thats what it is!
