Some BIOS versions/Vaio models apparently ship with two nearly identical functions to handle backlight related controls. The only difference seems to be: If (LEqual (BUF1, 0x40)) { Store (0x40, P80H) Store (BUF2, Local0) - And (Local0, One, Local0) + And (Local0, 0x03, Local0) Store (Local0, ^^H_EC.KLPC) } Avoid erroring out on initialization and messing things up on cleanup for now since we never call into these methods with anything different than 1 or 0. This issue was found on a Sony VPCSE1V9E/BIOS R2087H4.
