------- Comment #32 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-03-18 14:11 ------- For users of Intel Embedded Graphics on ANY thinkpad that does not respond do thinkpad-acpi brightness_mode=1 (pure EC control), which includes the T61: Repeat after me: * I am to use X.org native backlight control! * I am to use X.org native backlight control! * I am to use X.org native backlight control! * I am to use X.org native backlight control!... ad nauseum. Current versions of X.org **enforces** this. It tells the BIOS to stop controlling the backlight levels, in a much lower level than even the ACPI interface. Using ACPI won't help. Using thinkpad-acpi might (and I doubt it), but you are on your own if X.org decides to not like it and hard-crash your box. So, use X.org native backlight control on the T61 with Intel graphics.
