These patches fix video issues on Dell Latitude E6410. Reported in bugs
http://launchpad.net/bugs/578673
http://launchpad.net/bugs/561802
The patches apply cleanly to 2.6.33.y (see attachments), and they were
tested against the latest Lucid kernel and reported to fix the 2 issues.
Kernel was tested by user community, as well as, on hardware available at
Canonical.
Regarding the issue with dim back-light on resume, Jesse wrote to me saying
he suspects some other agent like firmware might be a suspect in zeroing
it out before the driver saves it, ie driver seems to do the right thing.
