Patch "28-fix-omnibook-brightness-levels.patch: Omnibooks have 11 brightness levels, not 8." broke my hal, see http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=392022.
It is not true that omnibook have 11 brightness level and not 8, it can be both. Omnibook module, if compiled with kernel >= 2.6.19 correctly creates [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls /sys/class/backlight/omnibook/ actual_brightness brightness max_brightness power subsystem uevent this will be used by hal (I guess beyond version 0.5.9) to get max_brightness of the device, the portion of code that the patch modified will be dropped (see http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/hal/2006-October/006317.html) In my opinion, you can skip that patch, thanks for all your work, I hope this helped.
