            Bug ID: 61231
           Summary: Backlight off (set to lowest level) on boot
           Product: ACPI
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 3.11
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: Power-Video
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
        Regression: No

The hardware is Acer Aspire V5-573G with Intel (Haswell) video + Nvidia GPU. I
can increase brightness normally with the keyboard fn + arrow keys.

Happened on the stock kernel from Ubuntu 13.10 Beta and the latest mainline
kernel from ubuntu kernel-ppa: linux-image-3.11.0-999.
-generic_3.11.0-999.201309110406_amd64.deb

The brightness levels show up correctly under /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0
and respond to the brightness controls so it's using the acpi video driver.

Another using reporting same problem:
