The 'ifdef CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO' didn't work on my machine with v3.4
kernel, the acpi video didn't unregister.

My autoconf.h like following:

include/generated/autoconf.h:#define CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO_MODULE 1


Need use:

-#ifdef CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO
+#if (defined CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO || defined CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO_MODULE)
pr_info("Disabling ACPI video driver\n");
acpi_video_unregister();
#endif

I tested the above change works to me.


Thanks a lot!
Joey Lee
