Hi, Thanks for the bug report. One commit that jumped out at me between 4.15.16 and 4.15.17 is 965736ee654db8bb009a9736e52cac0278a24a8b. If you boot 4.15.17 with "video.only_lcd=0" added to the kernel command line, does that make any difference? What's the output of "ls /sys/class/backlight"?

Oh, good call Jeremy in case you've not seen it yet, here is a commit which should fix the regressions caused by that commit: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10345845/ Perhaps we should add this to the Fedora kernel while it finds it way upstream? > What's the output of "ls /sys/class/backlight"? If "video.only_lcd=0" helps then it likely is empty without that kernel argument. Laolux can you confirm this?

Ah, I hadn't seen that, thanks! I'll see about including it with the v4.16.4 update once I sort out the build failures. *** Bug 1570414 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** kernel-4.16.4-300.fc28 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 28. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2018-5926c0ffc8 kernel-4.16.4-200.fc27 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 27. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2018-e71875c4aa Laolux, Oswaldo, In addition to seeing if "video.only_lcd=0" helps, can you both also test the 4.16.4 update and let us know if that works? Assuming 965736ee654db is the root cause, it should fix things for you, but there's a non-zero chance additional tweaking will be required depending on your hardware. Thanks! Problem solved. Using 4.15.17, "ls /sys/class/backlight" outputs nothing. Adding "video.only_lcd=0" repairs the brightness adjustment with the keyboard keys for both, 4.15.17 and 4.16.3. It also changes the output of "ls /sys/class/backlight" to acpi_video0 -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0/backlight/acpi_video0 acpi_video0 -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0/backlight/acpi_video0 Kernel 4.16.4 completely fixes the problem, as "video.only_lcd=0" is no longer needed.
