Hi! On my thinkpad t490 I`m using backlight(8) with acpi_ibm(4) and devd(8). Here is my simple config: notify 100 { match "system" "ACPI"; match "subsystem" "ACAD"; match "notify" "0x00"; action "/usr/bin/backlight 20; service power_profile $notify"; }; notify 100 { match "system" "ACPI"; match "subsystem" "ACAD"; match "notify" "0x01"; action "/usr/bin/backlight 50; service power_profile $notify"; }; notify 100 { match "system" "ACPI"; match "subsystem" "IBM"; match "notify" "0x10"; action "/usr/bin/backlight +"; }; notify 100 { match "system" "ACPI"; match "subsystem" "IBM"; match "notify" "0x11"; action "/usr/bin/backlight -"; }; acpi_ibm module is loaded after i915kms in /etc/rc.conf: kld_list="i915kms acpi_ibm"
