------- Comment #19 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-07-06 23:59 ------- Okay, It seems that the standard _BCM method, which pokes the graphics device pci config space LBB register, doesn't work on your laptops. I don't know if this is normal, but I'll ask some graphics guys later. :) then we have some other ways to make the backlight work for you, 1. check if there are any platform specific methods to control the brightness which is not supported by sony-laptop driver currently. cc Mattia Dongili, the maintainer of sony-laptop driver and see if he has some ideas. :) 2. in X mode, you can use xrandr/xbacklight to change the brightness, which pokes the native graphics device register. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored by: SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards: VOTE NOW!
