Hi!
I own a Sony VAIO laptop that uses ACPI for setting
screen brightness
through the "2.6-sony_acpi4.patch" patch that has been
living in -mm for a while.
I'd like this patch to be merged in mainline, so that I
won't be forced anymore to patch
the kernel by hand or to use the -mm patchset.
Is there something that prevents this to happen?
Wrong interface?
Convert it to use /sys/class/backlight sysfs interface...

Thank you for repling!
I found a patch that does it in the mailing list archives,
although I've not tested if it can be still applied correctly:
