I appologize for the poorly written original bug report.  I was very
tired and had been working on this for some time.

As mentioned at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Debugging/Backlight, I
think that it may be helpful if I include that I do have entries in
/sys/class/backlight.

I can change brightness by issuing the below command

~$ echo 150 | sudo tee /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness

Title:
  Ubuntu 14.04 Beta cannot adjust brightness on Lenovo Ideapad Z570

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Fresh install of 14.04 on my laptop cannot adjust brightness.  When
  fn+up arrow or fn+down arrow are used, the indicator in the upper
  right hand corner as if the brightness should change, but it does not.
  Also, if one tries to use the slider in the power applet, the
  brightness does not change.
