Title:
  On Lenovo Thinkpad Edge E330, the screen backlight flickers badly.

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Steps were taken according to this:
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Debugging/Backlight

  With acpi_backlight=vendor, the flicker stops, and the brightness control doesn't work.
  However, 
      echo 8 > /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness
  dims the screen.

  thinkpad-acpi.brightness_enable = 1 does nothing.

  But if no changes are made, and
      echo 4437 > /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness
  is done, the flicker stops and the GUI control / acpi_video0 works.
  Attaching the necessary files.
