Hello Alex, thank you for your response. Yes, I have HP ENVY x360 Convertible 13-ay1xxx, and backlight_min=2 seems to work the best in my case. I added a dmi based quirk table. So far with support only for display 0 to make it simple. Support for more displays in quirk table can be added later if ever needed. According to [1] HP ENVY x360 Convertible 13-ag0xxx also needs a quirk so I'm going to use this to cover both: DMI_EXACT_MATCH(DMI_SYS_VENDOR, "HP") DMI_MATCH(DMI_PRODUCT_NAME, "HP ENVY x360 Convertible 13-") So far it seems to be working fine. I'll send this in v2 once I do some final tweaks and do more tests.
