Title:
  [Lenovo G780] Backlight switched off at login screen

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Whenever I used to boot on ubuntu, my login screen was too dim, I
  wouldn't know my computer was switched on until I increased the
  brightness with my keyboard.

  WORKAROUND: #!/bin/sh 
  cap_bright() {
     [ ! -d "$1" ] && return
      MAX=$(cat "$1/max_brightness")
      echo $MAX > "$1/brightness"
  }
  cap_bright "/sys/class/backlight/acpi_video1"
  cap_bright "/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight"
