I understand that it would be inconvenient, but you've broken existing working setups. > Can you perhaps explain a bit in what way your laptop > is weird ? It's a Chinese replacement motherboard for a Thinkpad X201, running my own port of Coreboot. Its DMI strings look like an actual Thinkpad in order to ensure that thinkpad_acpi can bind for hotkey suport, so it's hard to quirk. It'll actually be fixed by your proposed patch to fall back to native rather than vendor, but that patch will break any older machines that offer a vendor interface and don't have the native control hooked up (pretty sure at least the Thinkpad X40 falls into that category).
