From: Stefan Bader <stefan.bader@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: [PATCH] acpi: video: Loosen strictness of video bus detection code BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/333386 Currently a video bus device must (beside other criteria) define _DOD and _DOS methods to be considered a video device. Some broken BIOSes prevented working backlight control by only defining both for one (non-existing bus) and only _DOD for the rest. With this patch in place the other bus definitions were considered too and backlight control started to work again.
