+# PWM frequencies for display backlights
+
+## Values found in use by vendors
+
+* `Lenovo Thinkpad T60`: 0x58be/275Hz (@200MHz CDClk)
+
+* `Lenovo ThinkPad X60`: 0x879e/180Hz (@200MHz CDClk)
+
+* `Lenovo ThinkPad X200s`: 0x0cf8/753Hz (@320MHz CDClk)
+  LED backlight, panel:
+    Manufacturer: LEN Model 4014 Serial Number 0
+    ASCII string: LTD121EQ3B
+
+* `Lenovo ThinkPad X301`: 0x24fc/264Hz (@320MHz CDClk)
+  LED backlight, panel:
+    Manufacturer: LEN Model 4074 Serial Number 0
+    ASCII string: LTD133EQ1B
+
+## Often copy-pasted constants
+
+* `0x0610 for gm45`: First seen in commit 6481e10
+  "gma45: Ensure that brightness register in gma contains a sane vaule"
+  Depending on the CDClk frequency (222MHz .. 333MHz) 1.12kHz .. 1.61kHz
+
+* `0x0128 for i945`: First seen for lenovo/x60 in commit 26ca08c
+  "i945: Replace video gfx init."
+  With a CDClk of 200MHz it gives a 21.1kHz PWM.
