...
* backlight is ON and:
# cat bl_power 
0

this seems reversed logic here. shouldn't 1 == on, 0 == off? the logic seems to
continue its inversness when u:

* turn babcklight off:
# echo 1 > bl_power

* turn backlight on:
# echo 1 > bl_power

* now... before suspend:
#cat brightness 
21
# cat actual_brightness 
21

* now suspend:
# apm -s

* now resume (press power)
#cat brightness 
21
# cat actual_brightness 
63

seems wrong to me. the brightness should be restored on resume exactly as it
was left. the same happens to bl_power. if it was off on suspend - it should be
off on resume (also i guess he inverse logic above fixed too).

am i right? or am i missing something?

also while i am at it...
/sys/devices/platform/neo1973-resume.0/resume_reason

never seems it indicate the resume reason - no entry has an '*' next to it
ever... :(

are these known issues?
