Controlling the backlight doesn't work.

I've tried:
   Normal boot (no Grub options)
   =============================
   --> control via echo 3 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness --> no
action happens (a cat shows the new value 3 (old value 9)
   --> Via FN+Cursor Up / Down  --> no action happens

   ACPI Vendor boot (acpi_backlight=vendor)
   =============================
   --> control via echo 3 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness --> no
action happens (a cat shows the new value 3 (old value 9)
   --> Via FN+Cursor Up / Down  --> no action happens

   NOACPI boot (acpi=off)
   =============================
   --> control via echo 3 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness --> no
action happens (a cat shows the new value 3 (old value 9)
   --> Via FN+Cursor Up / Down  --> no action happens

   Win7 Boot
   =============================
   --> Via FN+Cursor Up / Down  --> Brightness control works ;-(

Created Files:
