As userland isn't ready for KMS now I will back off on this and bring it up again at around the 2.6.30/2.6.31 timeframe. (As I do agree things should work correctly without X running) > without ACPI_VIDEO: > only alt interface changes brightness and it works regardless of X On the current interface though, mind if I remove the distinction between GBLL & GBLS? The only difference between them (that you already noticed, based on code comments) is that GBLS does not clear GHKS. GHKS is the "change caused by brightness keys" flag. As a result you already have to override use_alt in 1 case. A simplier way to autodetect (taking into account your next mail about BLNF) would then be to see whether SBL2 exists, and use if it does. (I've checked all other DSDTs that I have, SBL2 is unique to the S64XX series). My ultimate goal in this is to make the DMI-based recognition of machines unnecessary, especially if BTNI turns out to be useful in knowing the keymap. > Peter Regards, Tony V. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAklhH5cACgkQp5vW4rUFj5oSJwCfci3c42ogoUhi/Il99Oy8L3BV 07AAoK/qdg+NC35CyPH0H3b47H0VDecF =xGab -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
