Subject2.6.30-rc1 (latest git): thinkpad-acpi: cannot control brightness with hotkeys
Hi there,

With latest git kernel, I'm no longer able to control my Thinkpad (W500)
brightness, although I can still control the backlight, bluetooth etc.

I originally got some errors (below), but I was able to get around them
by changing /etc/modprobe.d/thinkpad_acpi
from the (default OPENSUSE)
options thinkpad_acpi experimental=1 hotkey=enable,0xffffff
to
options thinkpad_acpi experimental=1

Any ideas on how I can regain control over the brightness gas-pedal?

Niel
