GPU registers region is probably allocated at a different address if you
see anything on the screen.

libreboot default?

It specifies 165 Hz: 0x93F393F2 is an appropriate register value.
I'm not sure if Lenovo BIOS requires changes to support different screens.

How are you setting that value? Check "lspci -vn -d 8086:27a2", see
where the smaller (register) memory region is allocated: the backlight
register is 0x61254 bytes after the start of that region. Both the
whine and brightness are affected by legacy backlight brighness, use
i945-backlight.py (from the same repo as intel-regs.py) to change it
(the argument is a number from 0 to 255).
