Finally I find the way to control LCD brightness.
I use NHC with ACPI module plugin.
I took sometime to figure out ACPI command of my laptop.
Anyway,I wrote the Wireless LAN and bluetooth control part. LCD brightness control part is copied from other model.
Now I can really get rid of ePowering and launch manager.![]()
Not sure which model can use this module, anyone intereted can try it. I think it MIGHT works on 5540,5560&5590 series. Don't expect too much, I'm not programmer...
Updated:
NHC(applied this module) and acer ePowring/launch manager should not run at the same time. Conflict will occured

Great work..
You should go and upload it here - http://nhc.justred.info/
I have no clue about this stuff so I'm watching closely for someone to do the same for the 8204.. Hopefully soon -
Well I've copied down his code, I'm hoping that from it I can figure out the 8204's requirements...
*fingers crossed*
Out of interest Sam, how did you figure out which keys were which? that's my main issue, all the keys seem to have illogical names... how could you tell that
_SB.PCI0.LPCB.EC0.RAM
Was the brightness? -
Print out the value can give me some clue.
like this:
result = ACPI.FIELD.Read("_SB.PCI0.LPCB.EC0.THS1", ref value);
return result;
LCD brightness part is copied from other model(,that from NHC forum)
Yet, I tried to control CPU fan too, no luck... -
Darn, I had hoped to be able to play with it...
Do you happen to have the DSL file for your computer, that way maybe I can do some syncing between what's in it and what's in mine (and discover something). -
ACPI command of Acer laptop seems quite different from other brand?Attached Files:
