Title:
  monitor brightness switched to lowest level after logout

Status in “xserver-xorg-video-intel” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  After logout, switching to another login screen or shutting down the
  monitor brightness is set to its lowest level, making it rather hard
  to read in bright environments. Pressing a brightness key once (up or
  down does not matter) sets the monitor brightness to its highest
  level. Therefore it seems, that a vt switch leaves the brightness
  level at a undefined state and after triggering a manual change, it
  switches to some default setting.
