It resides at your vga adapter's pci configuration space, offset 0xf4.
You can know your LPBC value by:
$ lspci -xxx -s 00:02.0 | awk '/^f0:/ {print $6}'
And alter it's value via setpci (assuming set it to max)
$ setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=ff
I assume you've tried this .. as you report setpci works for you. :)
>From your new attached log, In booting phase your LPBC is set to 255
and actual brightness is maximum (255*2890=736950). I see no other
change after it until manual brightness change. This is a totally
reversed to your problem.
Could you help to get the LPBC value in the initial dark condition? If
it's not corresponds to 255, maybe something sneaks and changes it but
not logged.
[ 3.125522] [drm:is_backlight_combination_mode],
BLM_COMBINATION_MODE = 1073741824
[ 3.125525] [drm:intel_panel_get_max_backlight], max backlight PWM = 736950
[ 3.125527] [drm:intel_panel_set_backlight], set backlight PWM = 736950

> Yes, that's the case. (Except that after closing the lid it's off again.)
Maybe this is another clue for root cause. Would it be convenient for
you to gather the log?
1. $ dmesg -c
2. Close the lid
3. Open the lid
4. $ dmesg > dmesg.lid
Thanks a lot,
