Comment:
This is a duplicate of #8258.
The only reason it worked before was that BIOS was handling your
brightness, so it is not really a regression, but an unimplemented
feature. BIOS handling gets disabled when ACPI starts. A driver for
handling brightness has never been fully implemented. It's not very
complicated, while it is on my TODO I can't do that until I have Haiku
working on my laptop.
The debug output I'm not sure about, I think Jerome added some debugging
info.
