Nvidia has already been asked 10000 times, they won't support backlight, because, every manufacturer is managing it differently, and there is anyway no real linux support by nvidia, that maybe also one of the most reason for nouveau, isn't it ?
I though it could be nice, to have backlight support until nouveau is really stable, because at that point, it is not designed for lambda users at all... Nividia, nor someone else seems to be concerned by the fact that a lot of people, even with very recent hardware, are affected from this issue... and what we need, is a quick fix, even if nvidia would think about it, it would last some years until it works, I'm already waiting for backlight support for two years, one or two years more, and my hardware will be obselete ! We really need a fix that is quickly implemented, and if nouveau has already the code working, it must be not so complicated to add it to the kernel, or in a way that the backlight support is also working without nouveau... _______________________________________________ Nouveau mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/nouveau
