Please ignore my comment above. I have just tried the linux 3.1 kernel
and found both the acpi_video0 and the intel_backlight in the
/sys/class/backlight still available in debian. I thought only the
acpi_video was in the 3.0 kernel and so switched to the
kamal~mgjbacklight kernel. Maybe I will figure that out after getting
this retraction of my previous post done. I am sorry for the previous
post I just thought the intel_backlight was replaced by the acpi_video0
in all future kernels. I am very happy now with the intel_backlight
control and hope the native brightness controls are retained. Thanks
again Kamal-
