Title: Backlight adjustment doesn't work on Google Pixel Slate Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The Pixel Slate/nocturne backlight does not work due to DPCD logic not identifying the DPCD backlight connection since there is no PWM on the nocturne or eve devices. ChromeOS documentation of disconnected PWM: https://chromium- review.googlesource.com/c/chromiumos/overlays/board-overlays/+/1171922 Discussion of issue & solution: https://github.com/EmbeddedAndroid /linux-eve/issues/2#issuecomment-561382927 This can be fixed with a simple patch which I have applied successfully to mainline 5.9-rc5: https://gist.github.com/satmandu/d6c2192f66cd14525049fd34d356d71d Luckily the Ubuntu kernel patches set i915.enable_psr=0 which keeps Panel Self Refresh from dimming the backlight at boot, but that isn't even needed for this device once the backlight is hooked up correctly. (As a bonus the keyboard backlight also starts working properly at boot.)
