Bug description:
  Hello
  I'm new in Ubuntu. I heard about this OS as one of the best and I thought to try it. But the brightness issue on Ubuntu 12.04 (after resting the pc it goes automatically in the max of brightness) is killin me. Any help or tips would be more than welcome. I tried so many commands so far (stuff like this at: /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/max_brightness) and it seems that the max of brightness is 15. help me pls!
