That sounds a little crazy that it can't reproduce in my opinion. When it "did" reproduce was the brightness at one of the extremes? Eg full high on shutdown or full low on shutdown?

It looks like the systemd-backlight service (/lib/systemd/system /systemd-backlight@.service) does not restore the brightness level (although it saves it before shut-down). However the following command does restore the saved brightness: sudo /lib/systemd/systemd-backlight load backlight:intel_backlight As a temporary solution to automate it at boot I am using the following line added to the root cron: @reboot /lib/systemd/systemd-backlight load backlight:intel_backlight - Ubuntu 4.10.0-20.22-generic 4.10.8 - Gnome 3.24 Please, let me know if you need more info.
