Framework 13 hid-sensor-hub working on lower kernel versions
The hid-sensor-hub kernel module is blacklisted for the Framework 13 12th and 13th gen for any kernel under 6.8:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware/blob/def1d472c832d77885f174089b0d34854b007198/framework/13-inch/12th-gen-intel/default.nix#L26
the reason for this, as can be read in this post, is an issue where the screen brightness keys didn't work.
I just tried enabling/unblacklisting the module for my Framework 13 13th gen running kernel 6.6.66, and both the sensor hub as well as the brightness keys work flawlessly.
I am not sure what to change in nixos-hardware though. Can I just make a PR where I change the kernel version below which the module is blacklisted to 6.6.66?
