2.6.30-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh commit 59fe4fe34d7afdf63208124f313be9056feaa2f4 upstream. HBRV-based default selection of backlight control strategy didn't work well, at least the X41 defines it but doesn't use it and I don't think it will stop there. Switch to a white/blacklist. All models that have HBRV defined have been included in the list, and initially all ATI GPUs will get ECNVRAM, and the Intel GPUs will get UCMS_STEP. Symptoms of incorrect backlight mode selection are: 1. Non-working backlight control through sysfs; 2. Backlight gets reset to the lowest level at every shutdown, reboot and when thinkpad-acpi gets unloaded; This fixes a regression in 2.6.30, bugzilla #13826 Signed-off-by: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh Reported-by: Tobias Diedrich Signed-off-by: Len Brown Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- drivers/platform/x86/thinkpad_acpi.c | 61 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++--------- 1 file changed, 47 insertions(+), 14 deletions(-) --- a/drivers/platform/x86/thinkpad_acpi.c +++ b/drivers/platform/x86/thinkpad_acpi.c @@ -5757,14 +5757,48 @@ static struct backlight_ops ibm_backligh /* --------------------------------------------------------------------- */ +/* + * These are only useful for models that have only one possibility + * of GPU.
