[PATCH] ACPI video: Ignore errors after _DOD evaluation.

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

 



There are systems where video module known to work fine regardless
of broken _DOD and ignoring returned value here doesn't cause
any issues later. This should fix brightness controls on some laptops.
