Not 100% sure on the mini/lxde but you should be able to edit the /etc/rc.local and set the brightness this way. For example, "set xbacklight -set (number you want goes here, no parentheses)". Don't forget to make it executable.

On my laptop I can just press "Fn" + "Arrow left" or "Arrow right" in order to decrease / increase the brightness. I admit, that wouldn't help with the default brightness but maybe it can help you.

I haven't figured out how to bind this command to a set of keys, but I manually change the brightness using this: echo 100 | sudo tee /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness Just change the "100" to whatever number you want. Maybe you could set it as a default by creating a script
