There is an updated pull request by phy1729 against master on the void-packages repository https://github.com/phy1729/void-packages acpi-handler https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/25909 Update acpid handler The first 5 commits are various cleanups that should have no functional change. The last commit adds support for increasing and decreasing the backlight brightness. If preferred I can rebase that out and keep it as a local modification. (I have another local modification for the volume keys that I don't think can be made generic and upstreamed anyway.) A patch file from https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/25909.patch is attached
