Title:
  [HP Pavilion 23] Brightness control doesn't work.

Status in HWE Next Project:
  Won't Fix
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  CID: 201206-11410
  The brightness control seems not working (although the brightness looks fine on this computer).
  Neither installing the proprietary driver, kernel update nor disabling the ACPI backlight driver would solve this.

  Steps:
  1. Open System Settings
  2. Select Brightness and Lock
  3. Adjust the brightness with the scroll bar.

  -or-
  1. Press the brightness key on the keyboard.

  Expected result:
  The screen brightness should change.

  Actual result:
  The screen brightness doesn't change.
  And if using the brightness key to control it, can only lower the brightness level of the indicator, but not raising it.
  (The screen brightness remain the same.)
