The acpi_osi blacklist is just a workaround, and if we have better solutions, it should be removed. That's why I'm asking it. So, after removing acpi_osi blacklist, and keeping your video blacklist patch, the backlight works? If yes, as mentioned, we should think of rather extending this video blacklist to more EliteBook G1 and ProBook G1 machines, and remove acpi_osi blacklist instead. Now hp-wireless is there, so the rfkill part should work without acpi_osi blacklist, too.
