Hi Andy,
    I've made my change to set the brightness level directly in the
driver, but the
OSD doesn't show correctly correspond to the level value. The brightness shows
OK in /sys/class/led/xxxx/brighness but the OSD always shows level 0. I thought
GNOME should read the brightness from /sys before showing OSD?
