Hi Felipe,

Please reference a similar bug where ACPI video driver can't work for
some thinkpad win8 laptops:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=51231

And the proposed way to fix this issue is for all Win8 systems, the
ACPI video backlight interface will be removed, leaving only GPU's
backlight interface:

Thanks,
Aaron
