Wow, I've never come across this backend before. We just have to add
support for it in HAL (in the hal-power-system-* scripts), and then
g-p-m will automatically work.

1. What (exactly) is the command for setting the brightness?
2. What is the command for reading the brightness?
3. What is the command to turn off the backlight (if possible)?

Can you open a bugzilla, and add this information there. Many thanks.

Richard.
