Ideapad Y510p not working #85

Hi, when inserting the module (v0.85), modprobe complains:

modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'nvidiabl': No such device

It's a dual 755M Lenovo laptop. Maybe the problem might be with two GPUs? Xorg needed some hints via Device sections as well.

Some info:

$ lspci -nn | grep NVIDIA

If anything else is needed, just ask. Thanks.

I have the same issue with the Y510p and a single 755M

@borian: In meanwhile, I found out xbacklight works perfectly fine for adjusting backlight.
