--- Comment #40 from KernelBug 3fdd1e5d@opayq.com --- I just noticed in the kernel under;

Graphics support > Frame buffer Devices > CONFIG_FB_NVIDIA_BACKLIGHT:

This is the description;

Say Y here if you want to control the backlight of your display.

If this is what I'm looking at and reading, for the backlight of the monitor to control the brightness, WHY is this under the Frame Buffer section, and not placed under, 'Backlight & LCD device support'?

I'm really confused by this and just don't understand...

Can someone PLEASE explain this?

Because I have been waiting since Dec. 2013, hoping that the Kernel Dev team will add in more backlight support, only to find under the Framebuffer, which trying to make Nvidia Framebuffer work is a pain in the ass...
