Wouldn't it be easier to fix at one driver to use the backlight interface than to fix everything else (radeon, fbdev, cirrus, savage, vesa, etc.) to use xrandr? > > > Maybe we should add an xrandr interface to adjust the sound card volume. > > If X > > is running, why not use xrandr to adjust the volume?

I was kidding :) Seriously though, I though we were trying to get X out of being in the OS business. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ xorg-driver-ati mailing list [email protected] http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-driver-ati
