The brightness hotkeys of HP Pavilion dv6 does not work with Win8 OSI. Due
to insufficient documentation for the driver implementation, blacklist
it as a workaround.

I gather that the native backlight interface doesn't work on those systems too,
is that correct?

Rafael,

Do you mean /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight? It works but acpi_video fails.

We have some cases that needs working acpi_video interfaces. I'd also
like to backport to previous kernels that has not use native backlight
by default

Cheers,
Alex Hung

If backlight is the only reason, we don't add machines to blacklist.c any
more.

Hi Alex,

Is it the hotkey broken with Win8 OSI or the acpi_video interface?
If it is just the interface, then you can add the system into the dmi
table in drivers/acpi/video.c with video_disable_native_backlight as
the DMI callback function.

Thanks,
Aaron

Rafael and Aaron,

Thanks for the comment. I will try drivers/acpi/video.c instead and
submit another patch.

Cheers,
