  * debian/control: Recommend: smartdimmer for sony backlight support.
  * 88_nvidia_brightness.patch: add a new sony-nvidia brightness get/set
    method, using the smartdimmer tool, and an fdi policy file so that we
    use this method on Sony laptops with known nVidia chips. Many thanks
    to Lee-tin-yien Yohan <email address hidden> for working on this!
    Closes LP: #277589.

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * 88_nvidia_brightness.patch: Also patch Makefile.{am,in} to install the new
    fdi file.
