 (ACPI issue?)
Date: Sat, 24 Aug 2013 17:08:25 +0200

 Hello,
 
 regarding this PR I made some further observation. Even the 
 acpi_ec_write seems to not have any effect on the brightness, the values 
 set to the appropriate register (IBM_EC_BRIGHTNESS   0x31) survive a 
 reboot.
 
 Looks like the values are stored correctly, but EC doesn't care for them 
 when setting brightness?
 
 I'm not sure where to look next. Could this be a hardware issue with the 
 Device?
 
 Kind regards,
 Matthias
