------- Comment #20 from [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2007-12-17 04:46 -------
In the mean time I've updated to the latest BIOS (1.10).
Now using the video module still does nothing (I do see the key press in kmilo,
but no brightness change).
Also using "modprobe thinkpad_acpi brightness_enable=1" does not work. I still
see no change in brightness when pressing the brightness keys.
I added the following to the acpid events as a work around:
thinkpad-brightness-up.sh ->

#!/bin/bash
manufacturer=`dmidecode --string system-manufacturer`
case "$manufacturer" in
    LENOVO*)
        echo 4 > /proc/acpi/ibm/cmos
    ;;
    *)
        . /usr/share/acpi-support/key-constants
        acpi_fakekey $KEY_BRIGHTNESSUP
    ;;
esac

thinkpad-brightness-down.sh ->
#!/bin/bash
manufacturer=`dmidecode --string system-manufacturer`
case "$manufacturer" in
    LENOVO*)
        echo 5 > /proc/acpi/ibm/cmos
   ;;
    *)
        . /usr/share/acpi-support/key-constants
        acpi_fakekey $KEY_BRIGHTNESSDOWN
    ;;
esac
