Dear all, I would like to report, that the brightness controll on the Lenovo Thinkpad w530 does not work on Archlinux. This problem exists since I installed Archlinux some month before. At the moment I'm using 3.19.3-3-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Apr 8 14:10:00 CEST 2015 x86_64 GNU/Linux with the recent gnome version on top. The keys to control the brightness are recognized correctly and gnome indicated that the brightness is changed. These are the related messages in dmesg. What else do you need, what else could I do?
