I am a complete outsider here, but my first reaction would be to say that backlight is much lower level than X. It is also relevant in console mode, for framebuffer... More a driver issue than an X issue. It seems to me that the right reaction is Alex Deucher 2010-04-27 15:52:23 PDT What do we do on systems with drivers that don't support randr 1.2? Pretty much all systems with a backlight control use the kernel backlight interface. Then the response seems to refer to DRM which is something I am not familiar with, but it seems to be something that other components than X cannot use easily. Any comment on that? -- Pat _______________________________________________ devkit-devel mailing list devkit-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/devkit-devel
