2.6.30-rc2-next-20090420:

My display *is* at full brightness, but I cannot adjust it,
because I'm missing some files:

[12:35] ikn:~# ls /sys/class/video_output 
[12:35] ikn:~# ls /sys/class/backlight   
[12:35] ikn:~# ls /proc/acpi           
ac_adapter  debug_layer  embedded_controller  fan   power_resource  thermal_zone
battery     debug_level  event          ibm   processor     wakeup
button      dsdt   fadt         info  sleep

So I cannot adjust brightness. I saw that
/proc/acpi/video/VID/LCD0/brightness was not existing on 2.6.30-rc2-00195-g9f76208
either.

Bug or am I missing some new file location?

Nico
