Title:
  1002:983d [Acer Aspire V5-122P] Unable to adjust screen brightness
  using Radeon driver

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  While using the Radeon driver, I am unable to adjust the screen
  brightness on my Acer Aspire V5-122P. Adjusting brightness in the
  settings applet has no affect. Adjusting brightness with the keyboard
  function keys turns the screen on and off seemingly randomly.

  WORKAROUND: sudo -s
  cd /sys/class/backlight/radeon_bl0
  cat max_brightness
  echo 200 > brightness #Example
  echo 10 > brightness #Example
  echo 255 > brightness #Example
