Vaio and brightness control is unfortunately and old story... With FZ series "sudo nvclock -S -20" works, and I think it should work also with the SZ series. If it works, you can try to link the nvclock command with FN keys according to the information that you will find in this old bug report:

Nvclock said that it was "unable to shadow the video bios". -- [KARMIC] sony vaio brightness buttons do not function https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/430430 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
