Title:
  Function brightness keys do not change brightness.

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  This is occurring on a Lenovo y510p machine running Ubuntu 15.10. My
  machine has a double Nvidia GT750M setup, running the latest Nvidia
  tested drivers (352.41)

   I have read that installing the nvidiabl driver might help but I
  wasn't able to succeed installing
  https://github.com/guillaumezin/nvidiabl in my system.

  I have attempted editing GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub to "quiet splash acpi_osi=Linux
  acpi_backlight=vendor" with no success.

  I have also attempted adding Option "RegistryDwords"
  "EnableBrightnessControl=1" to my nvidia xorg config file with no
  success.

  I managed a workaround solution by mapping keyboard shortcuts to the
  commands xbacklight -inc 5 and xbacklight -dec 5.
