You can try to modify > brighess by echo to sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness Unfortunately, the only thing in /sys/class/backlight is amdgpu_bl1. Basically I should have 2 , acpi_video0 & acpi_video1 however none there. > > > Unplugging the AC gives the following warning: > > > > acer_wmi: Unknown function number - 8 - 0 > > > > When plugging the AC back I see; > > > > acer_wmi: Unknown function number - 8 - 1. > > > > I uploaded a dump of the acpi tables and dmidecode of the box. > > > > https://www.frugalware.org/~crazy/nitro5/ACPI > > https://www.frugalware.org/~crazy/nitro5/DMI > > > > Please let me know if you need any other informations. > > > > Thanks for your report the behavior for the function 4 and function 8. > Maybe we can use the platform event to do something. e.g. expose key code > to userland.

While it is fine to report the Unknow functions/keys by default once reported upstream the user may want to silence these until implemented.
