Hi Petter,
Can you please make this into a real kernel patch with commit message, sob line and all? See Documentation/SubmittingPatches. Diff itself looks good.
Sure. This is my first try, so I hope I got it right.
Set i915.invert_brightness=1 on Packard Bell EasyNote LV
Booting Linux on a Packard Bell EasyNote LV casues the display to turn off. The fix is to invert the brightness handling in the driver. <URL: http://www.linlap.com/packard_bell_easynote_lv > got more information about the laptop.
