Title:
  Backlight brightness keys not working

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Originally described in bug 1533221. This is a new bug to track this
  additional issue separately.

  The above bug has h/w info attached etc. This is a new skylake

  acpi_osi=! acpi_backlight=vendor
  etc, etc

  with no luck.
