Public bug reported:

Hi,
The unity backlight control still changes the value of /sys/class/backlight/eeepc/brightness, but the 4.2 kernel that comes with Ubuntu 15.10 uses /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness instead. When I change/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness manually, the backlight changes.
If I boot the Eee PC with a 3.13 kernel, /sys/class/backlight/eeepc/brightness is used, and the backlight control from unity works.
Have a nice day,
Régis
