Bug Description
I've recently installed Ubuntu MATE 16.04 on my laptop Dell Latitude D520. So far everything is working very well apart from setting the screen brightness. I was using Ubuntu 12.04 before and I could change the screen brightness.
I tried these kernel parameters: "acpi_backlight
The function keys are working, but the brightness is nut adjusting. I got a little flicker but nothing else happens. How can this be fixed or is it related to MATE Desktop. Other desktops like xfce, cinnamon etc. works as expected.
