Public bug reported:
This is a regression. Up to 13.10 there was no problem changing screen
bightness on my Asus Eeepc 1015PEM. This machine has function keys for
changing the screen brightness up (with Fn+F6) and down (with Fn+F5).
In 14.04 using the function keys causes the indicator to appear and the
the brightness bar moves appropriately, but there is no change to screen
brightness.
Using the slider on the (new?) Brightness and Lock settings form also
has no affect on the screen brightness. Operation of the function keys
will move the slider. However, repeated use of the function keys causes
the slider control to disappear from the form (as is found on a machine
where control of screen brightness by function keys are not available).
