<pre>Jani, if possible, could you please reconsider your resolution on this issue?
<span class="quote">> The i915 kernel driver is not the place to work around hp_wmi hotkey issues.</span >
Sure, but this two HP devices was just example of case when issue is more
severe due to not working hotkeys. I just disabled backlight on GPD Win 2 for
example, just by decreasing brightness, but in GPD case I at least can enable
it back by using working hotkeys. I guess many other vendors affected too.
Also, don't you think it would be easier to solve this on kernel driver level,
instead of fix every desktop environment separately? Latter will take a few
years in best case scenario.

All three devices boot in UEFI mode.</pre>
