You can use crontab(1) to run backlight at reboot. This is what I have: ~> crontab -l @reboot /usr/bin/backlight 50 A second option could be to load the acpi_video module. In /etc/sysctl.conf you can define settings as hw.acpi.video.lcd0.fullpower=70 hw.acpi.video.lcd0.economy=60 For testing you can load the module by kldload und use sysctl to try if the settings are working with your hardware.
