Comment 24 for bug 226894

The patch removes MacBookPro3,1 from the list using the macbookpro addon, which is good since the addon does not work for that machine, and as stated, should be picked up by the nvidia backlight driver. But there could be other reasons for the backlight not to work, could there not?

On a different note, the patch also adds the newer macbooks to the keyboard backlight interface, but that interface is provided by the same macbookpro addon, and hence wont work. (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/125918).
