It would almost certainly break some other machine. We could, of course, use a quirk to make your machine work, but that's something of a last-resort as it won't fix any other machines. > Yes, but I have no backlight control: the screen is too bright to look at= comfortably.

Adding support for the native backlight driver (Matthew's patch) and disabling the old backlight mechanisms makes everything better.
