X11 driver detection seems to be fully automatic with Leap 42.1: All the xorg.conf.d files are empty. Thats fine, as long as everything works, but sucks if you try to fix something and there is no new documentation covering it. But finally I found a place to enable brightness control:

I modified /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-device.conf that only contained comments. It now looks like that: 

Section "Device"
  Identifier "Nvidia Device"
  Option  "RegistryDwords"  "EnableBrightnessControl=1"
EndSection
