Ok, I've confirmed the problem here. The following setting:
info.addons = {'hald-addon-generic-backlight'} (string list)
is not what we wanted, we wanted
org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.LaptopPanel.method_names =
{'SetBrightness','GetBrightness'} (string list)
and I can see how the patch that was applied is buggy, it short-circuits
because linux.sysfs_path is set.
Martin, what's the appropriate way to address this? Duplicate the logic
from 10-laptop-panel-mgmt-policy.fdi in 10-sony-laptop-brightness.fdi?
** Changed in: hal (Ubuntu Jaunty)
Status: Fix Released => Triaged
