After digging a bit, I have found that this command works:

# echo 2000 >
/sys/devices/virtual/backlight/apple_backlight/subsystem/intel_backlight/brightness

I noticed there is also another file
/sys/devices/virtual/backlight/apple_backlight/subsystem/apple_backlight/brightness
and the value in there changes when I use the brightness keys.  Echoing
into that file doesn't do anything.

So my understanding is that there are two files and the wrong one is
used.

Hope this helps!
