Bug Description
In Settings > Brightness & Lock the brightness is set to 100%. Also dim is not selected.
But, after resuming from suspend, the brightness is very low and I cannot increase it. Sliding that scaler does nothing and the same with the laptops FN-keys, they do nothing.
Reboot was required to fix the problem. First I tried to restart lightdm but could see after stopping it (sudo /etc/init.d/lightdm stop) that the terminal on vt1 was way to dim.
Edit: Last time this happened, I was able to get the brightness back by stopping lightdm and starting it again.

Well that was unexpected. The ACPI backlight failing. </sarcasm>
