[lindeMAX]

The backlight slider does not show up and i'm getting an error message that swaync is not able find the device:

** (swaync:226274): WARNING **: 13:31:21.692: backlightUtil.vala:41: Could not find device /sys/class/backlight/amdgpu_b11/brightness

But the device does exist:

To Reproduce
Add the backlight widget to the config and configure it:

  "widgets": [
     "backlight",
     "volume",
     "mpris",
     "title",
     "dnd",
     "notifications",
     "buttons-grid"
   ],
   "widget-config":{
      "backlight": {
	   "subsystem": "backlight",
	   "device": "amdgpu_b11"
      },

Expected behavior
Get a slider to control the backlight

Sorry for opening this issue.
As soon as i opened it i noticed that i had a typo in the config.
It should be amdgpu_bl1 and not amdgpu_b11
