I should think that it would be prudent to expose the ac and dc defaults to user-space -- allowing user-space to over-ride them, and then on ac events doing the brightness switch in the kernel. That way it will work even w/o teaching user-space new tricks. thanks, -Len > > http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12450 -- 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
