They do not create any events for the OS but work even when in BIOS or GRUB, but not in Linux without said kernel parameter. Userspace tools are able controlling brightness using standard methods regardless of any ACPI parameters, they only seem to affect the keys themselves. Forum reports state that this is true for the whole Fujitsu (Simens) Amilo series, tested on Amilo Pi 2515. ___________________________________________________________ Preisknaller: WEB.DE DSL Flatrate f?r nur 16,99 Euro/mtl.! http://produkte.web.de/go/02/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
