Re: [Powertop] [PATCH] Fix screen DPMS support detection
Hi Arjan,
Please look at my next patch too. I try to get rid of things like:
-2147483648%, "Display backlight",
The problem is that on some architectures max_brightness is 0. And you
can find
division by zero and getting NaNs in backlight code. So I try to fix it
not to use incorrect
values when DPMS is disabled or backlight control is not supported.

if you don't have a graphics card with proper driver...
there's nothing we can do and pretending that DPMS is disabled sounds like a mostly
bad idea
on first sight
what is behind the idea of assuming it disabled ???
