## Keyboard backlight

Note: Not all X250 keyboards have backlight

In order to get the backlight to work, add `options thinkpad_acpi force-load=1` to `/etc/modprobe.d/x250.conf`. This forces the thinkpad_acpi module to load, which is needed for controlling the backlight via xorg-xbacklight as well as enable some of the extra media keys.

## Audio

In order to get control of the audio from Intel hdmi, you have to disable it and force alsa to use Intel PCH. See ALSA#Set the default sound card to set the default sound card to Intel PCH (speakers and headphones).

    /etc/modprobe.d/thinkpad-x250.conf

    options snd_hda_intel index=1,0
