Controlling LCD brightness doesn't work on drm-61 and drm-66. Works on drm-515.
-CURRENT from today (4a38527105d5), but problem was noticed months ago.
Backlight will show that value changes:
% backlight 100
% backlight
brightness: 100
% backlight 50
% backlight
brightness: 49
But brightness of the internal LCD screen doesn't change.
acpi_video.ko is loaded.
sysctl hw.acpi.video.lcd0.brightness behaves same as backlight command.
HW: Lenovo ThinkPad X1 carbon, 5th (from 2017.)
