[Bug 1471634] [NEW] After suspend/resume, screen brightness can only be switched between 0 and 100%

 

Public bug reported:

I have the same issue as described in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1197482. I have a
macbook running Ubuntu 15.04, and if I suspend and then unsuspend, then
my screen turns off when I set the brightness to to below 85%ish (4
presses of the brightness down key from full), and it's at full
brightness when it's anywhere above that. Brightness controls work
perfectly fine after booting before I ever suspend.
