Chris
I can confirm that the bug exists after having updated my bios (2.08 ->
2.10). I have also checked the new bios with the upstream kernel for
completeness.
The problem remains identical to the description given in my initial
report. I have removed the outdated bios tag and set this back to
confirmed (which I hope is the correct procedure).
Output from the commands you requested:
$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
[sudo] password for lewis:
V2.10
10/14/2013
** Tags removed: bios-outdated-2.10
** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
Status: Incomplete => Confirmed

Title:
[Acer Aspire V5-122P] Unable to adjust screen brightness
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I am unable to adjust the screen brightness on my Acer Aspire V5-122P.
Adjusting brightness in the settings applet has no affect. Adjusting
brightness with the keyboard function keys turns the screen on and off
seemingly randomly.
