Hi,

X61 has the same problem. There are 2 video device object in ACPI
namespace, \_SB.PCI0.VID (vgapci attached but brightness control
doesn't work) and \_SB.PCI0.AGP.VID (has VBRC method but no driver
attached because of wrong _ADR).
The custom DSDT with the following patches and acpi_video(4) now
can adjust brightness level :)

If you want to make the custom DSDT, I can help you.
Thanks!
