Hmm, maybe a reverse bisect would be better.

Can folks affected by this bug please test the v4.0-rc1 kernel:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.0-rc1-vivid/

Title:
  regression: backlight can't be adjusted on UX32VD with
  3.19.0-12-generic kernel

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in linux source package in Vivid:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  The keyboard buttons are working as I get the on screen notification.
  But it has no effect on the backlight itself.

  I rebooted and switched back to 3.19.0-11-generic which works fine,
  rebooted and went back to 3.19.0-12-generic and it stopped working
  again, so very confident something broke in the new kernel version.
