From 7be35c72e6454059a33ad844153349973d22fcb7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthew Garrett Date: Mon, 9 Jun 2008 21:56:16 +0100 Subject: backlight: Add Nvidia-based Apple Macbook Pro backlight driver Nvidia-based Apple Macbook Pros don't appear to handle backlight control through the graphics card registers or ACPI, but instead trigger changes via SMI calls. This driver registers a generic backlight device that lets existing userspace deal with it. Code derived from Julien Blache's Pommed application.
