Hi, it seems that the first version was blocked due to the attachments, which were quite big, so I'm resending this without any attachments this time. You'll find links to the files over on pastebin.mozilla.org.

Unfortunately that doesn't work either . According to the dmesg output the key presses itself get registered by the sony_module in both cases. However when booting with acpi_backlight=vendor I don't get any brightness control at all, whereas when booting without it the brightness indicator from Gnome 3 pops up whenever trying to change the brightness. But in both cases the actual brightness of the screen doesn't change. I've attached a complete dmesg output of both cases (dmesg.log and dmesg_backlight_vendor.log). Alternatively you'll find both files over on pastebin.mozilla.org, see [1] and [2]. Maybe somewhat suspicious is the following line: [ 0.710585] [Firmware Bug]: ACPI: No _BQC method, cannot determine initial brightness It can be found in the dmesg output of both cases. As already said it had worked in the past. However I'm not entirely sure whether it was 3.2 or 3.3 that broke it. If it's important to know, let me know, and I'll recompile an old version of the kernel. > please provide your laptop's DSDT table as well. I've attached a disassembled version of the DSDT to this mail. However it is 449 KB in size, so I don't know whether it will get through . In case something doesn't work out, you'll find the file here [3]. Thanks in advance!
