    Cannot load mbp_nvidia_bl

    Hi,

    I am a macbook user. Everything works except that i cant load the kernel module mbp_nvidia_bl:
    Code:
    modprobe mbp_nvidia_bl
    FATAL: Error inserting mbp_nvidia_bl (/lib/modules/2.6.34.7-56.fc13.x86_64/kernel/drivers/video/backlight/mbp_nvidia_bl.ko): No such device
    There is no log entry regarding to mbp_nvidia_bl in the hole /var/log dir...

    my kernel is: 2.6.34.7-56.fc13.x86_64

    nouveau driver is rdblacklist(ed)...

    SELinux is enabled, in targeted mode.

    any help?

    Me too - Ive tried everything to get the screen dimming. Pommed works for my keyboard, but not for the screen. Any clues as to where I can get mbp_nvidia_bl ?

    Re: Cannot load mbp_nvidia_bl

    For the sake of anyone else struggling on this like me, I found the module is in the kernel rpm for example
    /lib/modules/2.6.35.11-83.fc14.x86_64/kernel/drivers/video/backlight/mbp_nvidia_bl.ko

    But doesnt load as per this thread.
