Bug Description
Brightness controls not working for me in Vivid Vervet as of 1-2 weeks ago.
Was confirmed working on Utopic Unicorn.
Hotkeys for brightness up & down non-functioning,
Hotkey for display on/off still works.
Gnome control center (brightness & lock) does not show brightness slider.
What does work is
"echo $value > /sys/class/
as root for any $value of 0 - 2047
Running on an Asus S400C Laptop.
