I wrote a couple of upstart scripts to save and retore brightness between bootups. I hope the scripts are smart enough to run unmodified in any system with /sys/class/backlight.
You can find them at bitbucket with install instructions: https://bitbucket.org/jjchico/upstart-brightness Quick manual: cd /etc/init sudo wget https://bitbucket.org/jjchico/upstart-brightness/raw/d9a5d9484475eb1256d56c64b28e680a7aeae72c/brightness-store.conf sudo wget https://bitbucket.org/jjchico/upstart-brightness/raw/d9a5d9484475eb1256d56c64b28e680a7aeae72c/brightness-restore.conf Test reports and patches are wellcome (these are my first upstart scripts).
