What if you remove the above from kernel command line, and add
video.brightness_switch_enabled=0 to kernel command line, then set the
following in xorg.conf:
$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "Device"
Option "Backlight" "intel_backlight"
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "intel"
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection
Does everything work?
If not, please test if manually change brightness level through sysfs
works:
# cd /sys/calss/backlight/intel_backlight
# echo xxx > brightness
And also test if hotkey event is sent out or not by running acpi_listen
and then press the hotkey.
