Subject: [patch 28/74] thinkpad-acpi: fix incorrect use of TPACPI_BRGHT_MODE_ECNVRAM
Date: Thu, 13 Aug 2009 12:50:03 -0700	[thread overview]

2.6.30-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <hmh@hmh.eng.br>

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
