Public bug reported:

I have a lenovo g700-notebook. i installed ubuntu 13.10. on monday. It
was very tricky. On startup with Ubuntu-Install-USB-Stick  after aprox.
30 secs. the screen got dark. I didn't know whats going on. so i tried
starting several times. At least i mentioned that the brightness was at
minimum (screen dark), but with the 'brightness+' (F12) i could see the
screen. This behavior still remains, but now i know waht to do. Other
users may have problems with this behavior. The brightness-key allows to
darken the screen absolutely, so you dont see what happens. At least i'd
like to save the screen-brightness, but i'm unable to do this. On
startup the brightness is always on 'dark'-mode and i have to brighten
up the screen.
