I hope that the acpi brightness will be implemented in upower, for me the correct thing is to have the brightness support working for most of the people, i recall we had this discussion before and for whatever reason it was said that all the brightness support should be on the xrandr part, which we know it is not going to happen, or it is not going to happen any time soon, in the meanwhile, from my side "xfce" 90% of the users, including myself, lost their brightness support when dropping HAL completely.

I care about this because it is funny in 2011 to don't be able to change the brightness level of a laptop, laptops will be consuming more power which is not green, and people will damage their eyes if working on a full brightness level laptop in lightless conditions, which is also not green i can say.

What amazes me is that now we have a kdb brightness support in upower and no laptop panel brightness support...

Kind regards,
Ali.
