[Bug 345355] [NEW] No /proc/acpi/video in Clevo M860TU

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I own a Clevo M860TU with a nVidia 9800 GT and I get no /proc/acpi/video
(empty directory) in Intrepid. As a result my display cannot respond to
state changes nor brightness hotkeys, this is particularly upsettings
since I can't get any console terminals (outside X).
