Public bug reported:

Backlight control does not work and there are no entries in
/sys/class/backlight. When I boot my system with the option
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="acpi_backlight=vendor" I can change the
brightness with the command xrandr on a terminal.

I attach all the system information about this problem.
