| 6 | The output sysfs class driver provides an abstract video output layer that |
| 7 | can be used to hook platform specific methods to enable/disable video output |
| 8 | device through common sysfs interface. For example, on my IBM ThinkPad T42 |
| 9 | laptop, The ACPI video driver registered its output devices and read/write |
| 10 | method for 'state' with output sysfs class. The user interface under sysfs is: |

| 12 | linux:/sys/class/video_output # tree . |

| 14 | |-- CRT0 |
