For sure you have a /proc/acpi directory. Do you have a video directory in 
there? If so, do you have a VID directory in there? If so, a LCD0 directory in 
there? If so, what files do you have there? Nothing under /proc are real files, 
it's a filesystem the kernel uses to inform/communicate with users and 
programs. Most of the so-called files there are text files, and you can read 
them with `cat filename`. In my case:
$ cat /proc/acpi/video/VID/LCD0/brightness
levels:  20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60 65 70 75 80 85 90 100
current: 75

I don't think the bug is in the intel driver. It is likely a ACPI bug
that belongs in the kernel. Take a look at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingACPI and upload the information they
ask for. We'll assign the bug to the kernel after that.
