Hello, Chris. Thanks you for your reply.

As you suggested I removed those kernel parameters. Also I tried
"video.use_vendor_backlight=1" and it did not help. According to dmesg this is
unknown parameter (see attached dmesg).

Also in 3.15.5 kernel my /sys/classs/backlight folder has three subfolders:
acpi_video0
acpi_video1
intel_backlight

So is there anything else I can try?
