Subject: Re: [PATCH]  do not select ACPI_VIDEO in poulsbo stub driver

Hi Rui, 

Sorry about this patch will not work on my MSi poulsbo machine.

Sorry, we cann't remove to call acpi_video_register, because the acpi
video will not generate because there have some poulsbo machine declare
Intel opregion in DSDT but the i915 driver not support poulsbo.

That's why we add the poulsbo stub driver to enable the acpi video
because those machine implement acpi _BCL, _BCM interace and control
brightness by ec.

Here is our discussion:

I am sorry I miss understand your last mail for poulsbo stub driver
cann't dependency on input, because your patch is old.

The following is the newest patch that was send out by me:

Subject: [PATCH] Add Intel GMA500(Poulsbo) Stub Driver

Currently, there have no GMA500(Poulsbo) native video driver to support
intel opregion. So, use this stub driver to enable the acpi backlight
control sysfs entry files by requrest acpi_video_register.
