/proc/acpi/video/:
GFX0

/proc/acpi/video/GFX0:
DD01  DD02  DD03  DD04  DD05  DOS  info  POST  POST_info  ROM

/proc/acpi/video/GFX0/DD01:
brightness  EDID  info  state

/proc/acpi/video/GFX0/DD02:
brightness  EDID  info  state

/proc/acpi/video/GFX0/DD03:
brightness  EDID  info  state

/proc/acpi/video/GFX0/DD04:
brightness  EDID  info  state

/proc/acpi/video/GFX0/DD05:
brightness  EDID  info  state

But like I said, it is possible to adjust the brightness software side
(even without acpi_osi parameter), it's only the keys that don't work.
