>       sudo apt-get update
>       sudo apt-get install sysvinit-backlight
>
>       NOTES:
>       1. If you have installed previous non-deb version, please remove it carefully manually
>         sudo rm /etc/rc?.d/?25backlight /etc/init.d/brightness /etc/rc?.d/?25brightness
>       2. If you have installed previous version from my PPA on Ubuntu 14.04, please reinstall the package by:
>         sudo apt-get purge sysvinit-backlight
>         sudo apt-get install sysvinit-backlight
>       3. Version 0.1ubuntu1 supports save/restore of keyboard backlight too.

>     B. Ubuntu 14.10 is near EOL (really in July 2015), so users should upgrade it to Ubuntu 15.04 (see C below).
>        My script seems to be incompatible with this Ubuntu version - remove it with
>         sudo apt-get purge sysvinit-backlight
>         sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:nrbrtx/sysvinit-backlight
>
>     C. Ubuntu 15.04 has systemd-backlight@.service. It saves and restores screen and keyboard backlight levels.
>        My script is incompatible with this Ubuntu version.
