This problem still persists. It's extremely annoying. When ubuntu boots up, all I can see is a very dimly lit screen. I can't see anything really. It's ridiculous. Every release which comes out I hope this problem will be fixed and it still persists. Why wont you guys take this bug seriously? I'm running ubuntu 12.04 AMD 64 desktop on an emachines e527. Other distros suffer from the same backlight issue also. The workarounds where you can use a script to set the brightness do work but they create problems with coming back from a suspended state. Please fix this problem.
