The "not sure about that one" was referring to "ThinkPad CMOS snooping" stopped working. Sorry about the confusion. The brightness keys still work as before (at least in the console), just Fn+Home turns off the screen. I also just started tpb and it works as before. So this did not break. > But here's something I expect might shed light on the issue: Video FOO 0x= 86 > is trapped, and acted upon by the standard generic ACPI video module! > Please disable it (remove video.o module, or recompile kernel without > ACPI_VIDEO), and tell me what happens :-) Hey, yeah, that fixed it! I unloaded the generic ACPI video module and the screen no longer goes dark when pressing Fn+Home. Everything else still seems to work... Thanks, that is a good workaround until the issue is fixed. --=20 Michael Reinsch <mr...@uu...> http://mr.uue.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
