Bug Description
And so I can not set the backlight of my monitor screen (for example, "xbacklight -set 50" does not make any effect, nor using the FN+F6 or FN+F7 keys does something). In 11.10 it was okay, but not now (in 12.04) is not. [My eyes hurts...!]

There should be a solution. I really can not comfortably use my pc with that problem in Lubuntu 12.04. All that strong light ...it is like being in a solarium! [There is a solution... to wear sunglasses, how's that...? Just kidding... but, really, you can not tolerate that.]
Well, if you are willing to help, do so -for the sake of Ubuntu.
