Title:
  8086:0116 [Dell Inspiron 14z (N411z)] Display brightness keys do not
  work on kernels 3.11 and 3.13

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Brightness keys Fn+F4 and Fn+F5 (decrease and increase brightness) do not work on 13.10 and 14.04.
  On 12.04 (up to 12.04.3) and 13.04 worked ok. 
  That is, up to ubuntu repository kernel 3.8 the brightness keys worked ok.

  On ubuntu repository kernels 3.11 and 3.13, the brightness keys do not
  work. (this includes 12.04.4 that has kernel 3.11).

  I currently have installed 14.04 with kernel 3.13.0-8.
