Changing the screen backlight brightness doesn't work on an Acer eMachines G725
laptop.

Keyboard shortcuts (Fn+Left, Fn+Right) don't work, /sys/class/backlight/ is
empty and all brightness nodes in /proc/acpi/video/ report <not supported>.

When a keyboard shortcut is pressed I get the following ACPI error in dmesg:
ACPI: Failed to switch the brightness
