There were some small changes merged in v3.10 related to acx's backlight, but they were removing dead code so I don't see how those could affect... Looking at the driver, the bl is initialized: if (md->has_bc) brightness = acx565akm_get_actual_brightness(md); else brightness = 0; And has_bc is set only if the model is detected as MIPID_VER_ACX565AKM (that's the panel in final N900, isn't it?). So what comes to my mind is that either the model is detected wrong, or the acx565akm_get_actual_brightness() which reads the current BL from the panel happens to return 0, either because of an error, or because the bootloader has set the BL to 0. But why either of those would've changed with v3.10... No idea... Can you add debug prints to see which code paths are taken there (drivers/video/omap2/displays/panel-acx565akm.c, around line 580). The panel model should also be printed with "omapfb: %s rev %02x LCD detected". Tomi
