Title:
Can not control brightness on Thinkpad P51
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I can not modify the screen brightness in Ubuntu 17.10. Controls
aside, the classes in `proc` are either not available or non-
functional depending on what arguments I provide in
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT.
On a parallel installation (Ubuntu 16.04.3), brightness control works
flawlessly.
