477 | What: Support for lcd_switch and display_get in asus-laptop driver | ||
478 | When: March 2010 | ||
479 | Why: These two features use non-standard interfaces. There are the | ||
480 | only features that really need multiple path to guess what's | ||
481 | the right method name on a specific laptop. | ||
482 | |||
483 | Removing them will allow to remove a lot of code an significantly | ||
484 | clean the drivers. | ||
485 | |||
486 | This will affect the backlight code which won't be able to know | ||
487 | if the backlight is on or off. The platform display file will also be | ||
488 | write only (like the one in eeepc-laptop). | ||
489 | |||
490 | This should'nt affect a lot of user because they usually know | ||
491 | when their display is on or off. | ||
