Patch to fix this Re: Dell/acpi_video hw.acpi.video.out0 is

acpi_video.c expects the lcd to be identified as 0x0110, but my Dell
Latitude C400 (and probably others) id's the lcd at 0x0400:
Device (LCD)
{
Method (_ADR, 0, NotSerialized)
{
Return (0x0400)
}
so, acpi_video needs to account for this.
got this sorted, and now the display turns back on, here's the patch, i
already send-pr'd it
