I assume you don't have a xps13 full HD as 3.8.0-30.44 makes the backlight
work in my xps13 full HD (it stopped working after 3.8.0-20.31).

Title:
  XPS13 backlight stopped working after update 3.8.0-18.28

Status in Dell Sputnik:
  Confirmed
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I'm on 13.04 beta 2 and I've been updating daily. After today's
  update, I was asked to restart and, after the restart, the backlight
  stopped working. What's worse is that the backlight is stuck in the
  lowest possible setting. I can barely see enough to type out this bug
  report. This is not a hardware problem. When I restart the computer
  the backlight turns on property  but burns off when the Ubuntu
  encryption screen comes up (I'm using full disk encryption). Please
  fix this as soon as possible.
