Done.
Backlight implemented correctly, thank you.Your SSDT-PNLF.aml is not up-to-date.
Possibly not your AppleBacklightInjector.kext either.
See guide for current beta/beta_weg files as pertains to CFL:

@neocoma504 just wanted to let you know that the 3 minute black screen issue was fixed a month ago by @Fraxul. I'm currently in the process of making the patch a little safer for public release and it should be available as part of WhateverGreen soon. Thanks for all your help on this issue over the past several months. Finally we can both get back to Real Work(R)
PS You will need to apply the "Brightness Fix (ACPI 100)" patch to your DSDT.aml then rename DD02 to DD1F.
Also you will need to add the -cflbkltfix boot flag to enable the patch for WhateverGreen.
I don't think you need "Brightness Fix (ACPI 100)"... it is incredibly unlikely that AppleBacklight has started using ACPI.
You can probably get the same "result" with "Brightness Fix" or a simple SSDT with a basic PNLF device in it.
Or continue to work on SSDT-PNLF.dsl for complete/consistent functionality.
I tried the modified PNLF.aml I already had, I tried your latest one from your repo, I tried FixPNLF (in the latest Clover), I tried with the AppleBacklightInjector.kext / KextsToPatch / SSDT-PNLF.aml combo and I even tried making one based on your "typical PNLF" one.
None of them worked.
Maybe I needed to set the AutoMerge ACPI setting in Clover?

Hi @headkaze!
Thanks a lot for this great info! That made my day. Will give it a try this week end. Hopefully we will at last fully enjoy this laptop now indeed!
Compiled and used 1.2.4 WEG, still the 3 Minutes black screen isn't fixed for me.
