------- Comment #16 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-11-19 18:27 ------- how to override a DSDT can be found at: http://www.lesswatts.org/projects/acpi/overridingDSDT.php I close this bug is because: If this laptop follows the ACPI extension, which means that users can change the backlight via ACPI, its BIOS is borken (_DOS not available). This is a BIOS bug that Linux/ACPI won't fix. If this laptop doesn't follow the ACPI extension, i.e. the backlight still can not be controlled via ACPI after overriding the DSDT, I suggest you to try some ATI specific tools, and go to www.freedesktop.org for help, because there are many ATI experts there, :). -- 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. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ acpi-bugzilla mailing list acpi-bugzilla@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/acpi-bugzilla
