That's surprising since you reported the bug against 2.1.1-1 first and
the code is the same in 2.1.1-4. The only difference is that -4 was
compiled against Xserver 1.4 instead of 1.3.

Anyway, it would still be nice to test the latest upstream git with and
without the patch from
    https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11527
There are multiple backlight problems caused by some fix for some boards
breaking other boards. So, even if 2.1.1 works for you, it could be
broken later in git. And the above patch is supposed to fix all this. If
you don't have time, I'll just close this bug and we'll hope everything
will still work for you with the next release :)

Thanks,
Brice
