The issue happens in more than just "my broken box", and yes, reverting that patch would help (in more than just my box), in the sense that at least Linux won't boot into a black screen. But the backlight control still wouldn't work, as it hasn't worked since v3.7, possibly in many ASUS laptops, for that you need more than just reverting efaa14c. > Well, perhaps I just won't push it at all so that you actually can go and > complain to Linus about that ...
