Christopher, on Ubuntu 16.04, the problem with the backlight decided easy for this recipe:
create a file named 20-intel.conf
sudo touch /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf
opened it for editing
sudo gedit /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf
insert lines
Section "Device"
Identifier "card0"
Driver "intel"
Option "Backlight" "intel_backlight"
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection
saved and rebooted
brightness adjustment earned.
In unity with Ubuntu 14.04, 15.10, 16.04 it works, but on Ubuntu GNOME not.
The report failed to do. There was the program to install:
sudo apt-get install -y fwts acpidump dmidecode iasl
