I installed Gentoo with the gentoo-kernel-bin version 6.6.58 kernel on my Framework 16 laptop which has an AMD CPU.
Regardless of what I tried to do I can't seem to get my brightness to change by pressing the keyboard keys.

Anyone know what's causing this and its solution?

Thanks!

Have you tried installing sys-power/acpilight?

Yes, I tried installed xbacklight and then later installed acpilight but neither of them work.
I'm so confused, what's up with this backlight issue?

Thanks for replying!

I do not own the device, but this is what can be found on wiki https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Framework_Laptop_16#Embedded_Controller
