[PATCH] ACPI: video: Improve Chromebook checks

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

 



2 improvements for the Chromebook handling in
acpi_video_get_backlight_type():

1. Also check for the "GOOG000C" ACPI HID used on some models
2. Move the Chromebook check to above the ACPI-video check normally
   Chromebooks don't have ACPI video backlight support, but when
   flashed with upstream coreboot builds they may have ACPI video
   backlight support, but native should still be used/preferred then.
