Title:
  the display brightness doesn't change (it is to the max) with Mir in
  ubuntu 13.10

Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  I have used this guide http://www.olli-ries.com/running-mir/ to
  install and try Mir on a notebook Asus K55VD. There is a problem with
  display brightness. The hotkeys (fn+F5 or F6) work but the brightness
  is always to the max.

  Edit: Also if I install mir/xmir with the official repo (sudo apt-get
  install unity-system-compositor) there is same problem
