ACPI_VIDEO(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual ACPI_VIDEO(4)NAME
acpi_video -- ACPI Video Extensions driver
SYNOPSIS
device acpi_video
DESCRIPTION
This driver uses the ACPI Video Extensions to control display switching and backlight brightness. The availability of the sysctl(8) vari-
ables depends on the functions offered by the host's ACPI implementation.
SYSCTL VARIABLES
The following sysctls are currently implemented, where <device> is crt, lcd, or tv:
hw.acpi.video.<device>.active
Current state of the output device.
hw.acpi.video.<device>.levels
List of supported brightness levels.
hw.acpi.video.<device>.brightness
Current brightness level of the device.
hw.acpi.video.<device>.fullpower
Preset brightness level to be used in full power mode.
hw.acpi.video.<device>.economy
Preset brightness level to be used in economy mode.
Defaults for these variables can be set in sysctl.conf(5), which is parsed at boot-time.
SEE ALSO acpi(4), loader.conf(5), sysctl.conf(5), sysctl(8)HISTORY
The acpi_video driver first appeared in FreeBSD 5.3.
AUTHORS
The acpi_video driver was written by Taku YAMAMOTO <taku@cent.saitama-u.ac.jp>. This manual page was written by Mark Santcroos
<marks@ripe.net>.
BUGS
Some systems only perform output switching via SMM even though they export the proper information via ACPI. On such systems, the proper
hotkeys or OEM driver (for example, acpi_toshiba(4)) must be used instead.
