> So please revert the patch and let's get on with our lives. Yes, please. Please add the interface and the fallback you try to do in dk-power to the X server where it belongs. Then the drivers can implement it properly when they are ready, and will do the right thing transparently. You just use that interface, but don't add mechanics of other subsystems to your own tool, and export the interfaces. Because something is missing in X is exactly zero reason to add it to dk-power. It's really the wrong thing to do, at so many levels - and we've been through all that, I was hoping.
