On a Thinkpad s30 (Pentium III / i440MX, Lynx3DM), rebooting with sm712fb framebuffer driver would cause the role of brightness up/down button to swap. Experiments showed the FPR30 register caused this behavior. Moreover, even if this register don't have side-effect on other systems, over- writing it is also highly questionable, since it was originally configurated by the motherboard manufacturer by hardwiring pull-down resistors to indicate the type of LCD panel. We should not mess with it. Stop writing to the SR30 (a.k.a FPR30) register.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
