Subject: Re: [PATCH] Samsung backlight driver
Here's an updated version, with two more laptop models supported, and
the comments from Dmitry added in.
thanks,
greg k-h
----------------
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...e.de>
This driver implements backlight controls for Samsung laptops that
currently do not have ACPI support for this control.
It has been tested on the N130 laptop and properly works there.
Info for the NC10 was provided by Soeren Sonnenburg <bugreports@....de>
Info for the NP-Q45 from Jérémie Huchet <jeremie@...ah.info>
