[Bug 1258495] Re: backlight too bright, can't dim it much
Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer
to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest
v3.12 kernel[0].
If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following
tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.
If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag:
'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.
If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".
Thanks in advance.

Title:
backlight too bright, can't dim it much
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Screen is far too bright, dims only slightly with hotkeys, brightness
control applet ineffective. Tried more than half a dozen solutions
(incl. editing the grub which used to work fine with Ubuntu 12.04) but
none of them worked.

o "Reboot with only the kernel parameter acpi_backlight=vendor : "
If that means the grub file (excerpt) should look like this:
GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true
GRUB_TIMEOUT=10
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="acpi_backlight=vendor"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
o "Make a comment on if you can now alter the backlight with hotkeys or a brightness applet. "
Neither do the job.
Maybe this is also important:

No change after doing that.

Don't know how to do that.
Dealing with the rest on this site https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Debugging/Backlight is out of my depth.
Hope the information given helps in any way to fix the bug.
Thanks so very much for dealing with this!
