Hi Bart, I tried `acpi_listen' and don't gives me any kind of return, I checked the logs (/var/log/messages and /var/log/acpid) and I can't see anything... I tried as well with `smartdimmer' and according to `smartdimmer' he's changing bright but I don't see any difference even making a change from `0' to `21' in the level. `/sys/class/backlight' is empty.
