This should be more or less the same than the boot param:
acpi_backlight=vendor
which should be default on ThinkPads (maybe this is the bug that it's not
default).
You may also want to try:
acpi_backlight=video
but this does not work on latest ThinkPads.
Also invoke in a shell:
acpi_listen
If you press the brightness up/down keys, do you see a line popping up then?
If yes, please paste it here.
Can you log into the machine remotely via ssh?
This would make it easier for you to test if the screen is dimmed by default.
