Heya,

As Stelian Pop's Sony ACPI module[1] still hasn't made its way upstream,
nor in FC5's kernel, I hacked together a patch to control the brightness
of my VAIO using spicctrl instead.

The patch is at:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6729

Comments welcome

PS: I think that the first mail is still stuck in the moderation queue...
