  [Lenovo B470e] Unable to control brightness on 12.04.5

Status in HWE Next:
  Won't Fix
Status in linux-lts-trusty package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  CID: 201208-11587 Lenovo B470e

  This system was certified with 12.04.2
  http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/hardware/201208-11587/

  However, brightness control does not work on this system anymore.
  The brightness level indicator would change with hotkey events, but brightness itself does not.
  (This is an Intel UMA system)

  This issue could be found on many other Dell laptops as well
