I tried nvidia-bl without success... I cannot install Bootcamp, and so cannot retrieve this MacHALDriver.sys file... The work of disassembling may be useful as apple has released a patch related to the brightness handling for MacBook Pro 7,1 on windows [1].
If someone can provide MacHALDriver.sys from the latest bootcamp update, I can try to find the port, or perhaps, just ask Mario Schwalbe ;-) [1] http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1044 -- mbp-nvidia-bl: adding support for MacBook Pro 7,1 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/596641 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mactel Support, which is the registrant for Mactel Support. Status in Mactel Support: New Bug description: MacBook Pro 7,1 has a nvidia chipset (MCP89 / graphics: Geforce 320 M) I tried to add the following lines into mbp_nvidia_bl.c: { .callback = mbp_dmi_match, .ident = "MacBookPro 7,1", .matches = { DMI_MATCH(DMI_SYS_VENDOR, "Apple Inc."), DMI_MATCH(DMI_PRODUCT_NAME, "MacBookPro7,1"), }, .driver_data = (void *)&nvidia_chipset_data, }, At bootup, $ cat /sys/class/backlight/mbp_backlight/brightness 15 but, $ echo 3 > /sys/class/backlight/mbp_backlight/brightness does nothing on the brightness, except that $ cat /sys/class/backlight/mbp_backlight/brightness 3 If you need some command line outputs, I can provide them.
