My ACPI install doesnt have brightness files

Post by shadyabhi »

My netbook N210 doesnt support changing brightness using acpi.
ls -R /proc/acpi

My dmidecode output:-

ls -R /sys/class

Because, my acpi install doesnt have backlight support, few softwares that use apci for changing brightness doest work which is not acceptable.

Please tell me if you need anymore info. I will be happy to post.
