Title:
  screen brightness keys toggle from max to min-brightness (no steps
  between)

Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  For /sys/class/backlight interfaces which offer more than 20
  brightness levels (e.g. the forthcoming 'intel_backlight' interface;
  LP #568611), gnome-settings-daemon miscalculates the step amount,
  resulting in StepUp always driving the brightness to maximum and
  StepDown always driving the brightness to minimum (or backlight-off
  depending on the interface).

  Note that most backlight interfaces (which offer less than 20 levels)
  don't hit the bug so don't exhibit this problem.
