Hi John,

thanks for this hint. After "kldload acpi_video" devinfo -v shows the 
following (truncated):

nexus0
   acpi0
       pcib0 pnpinfo _HID=PNP0A08 _UID=0 at handle=\_SB_.PCI0
           pci0
             hostb0 pnpinfo vendor=0x8086 device=0x0104 subvendor=0x17aa 
subdevice=0x21ed class=0x060000 at slot=0 function=0
             vgapci0 pnpinfo vendor=0x8086 device=0x0116 
subvendor=0x17aa subdevice=0x21ed class=0x030000 at slot=2 function=0 
handle=\_SB_.PCI0.GFX0
               agp0
               drm0
               drmn0
               acpi_video0

Assuming the patch cannot help me, do you have an idea what I could 
check next?
I can control the brightness with
     acpi_call -p '\VBRU'
     acpi_call -p '\VBRD'
