Hi,

Where is "struct display_properties" defined?

  CC [M]  drivers/acpi/video.o
drivers/acpi/video.c:183: error: field 'acpi_display_properties' has incomplete type
make[2]: *** [drivers/acpi/video.o] Error 1

Lots of style issues (see below).

Combine those 2 lines into 1 line.

Combine and place '*' immediately before the function name,
not immediately after "void".

No braces for one-statement "blocks".

Where does the magic # 45 come from?
Can you use a #define or sizeof(X) for it instead?

Try to limit source lines to < 80 columns.

Several lines > 80 columns there.

"Enable" makes it sound like a boolean, not a tristate....

All of the help text (above & below) should be indented like the
first line above is:  one tab + 2 spaces.
