Has anyone had screen brightness control issues when updating to #nixos 26.05?
I was testing the channel upgrade in #nixbook and on my tester HP Dev One (Ryzen 7), I lost backlight control, after it had been working for years on previous channels.
What could have changed? Please feel free to check out the logged issue and boost
