Adding Jani, since iirc he looked at the entire backlight Kconfig story before. I think there's some nonsense going on where in some cases you don't get reasonable dummy functions where it just doesn't make sense. Or something like that. At least the entire select vs depends on backlight sounds eerily familiar. -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation +41 (0) 79 365 57 48 - http://blog.ffwll.ch
