Title:
  [Asus UL80VT] Backlight control does not work, but there are entries
  in /sys/class/backlight

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Not working since the upgrade to Raring. Used to work on 12.10.

  Not working neither with linux-
  image-3.9.1-030901-generic_3.9.1-030901.201305080210 from
  http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.9.1-saucy/

  Hotkeys are detected, showkey -s:
  Fn+F5:
  0xe0 0x4c 0xe0 0xcc
  Fn+F6:
  0xe0 0x54 0xe0 0xd4

  I also attach the results from tests described on
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Debugging/Backlight.

  Test with acpi_backlight=vendor:
  - on 3.8.0-20.31-generic, no change. But echo 8 > /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness makes the screen dark, moreover /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/max_brightness = 2583660
  - on 3.9.1, no brightness change but the KDE notification pops up with only 3 levels (0, 53, 100%)

  Test with video.use_bios_initial_backlight=0:
  - on 3.8.0-20.31-generic, no change.
