Hi and welcome,
If you want to get your hands dirty on driver development, I can
suggest the stub driver for brightness and display-controls[1]. A lot
of people would like to have those controls and the ACPI and the
ACPICA specifications are quite good. The driver detection code is
done, what is needed is installing handlers for notifications and
acting on these.
See 'ACPI Extensions for Display Adapters' in the ACPI spec.
