Quotes from http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/proto/randrproto/tree/randrproto.txt "This property controls the brightness on laptop panels and equivalent displays with a backlight controller. The driver specific maximum value MUST turn the backlight to full brightness, 1 SHOULD turn the backlight to minimum brightness, 0 SHOULD turn the backlight off." Quotes from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en- us/library/windows/hardware/ff569755(v=vs.85).aspx "Brightness levels are represented as single-byte values in the range from zero to 100 where zero is off and 100 is the maximum brightness that a laptop computer supports. Every laptop computer must report a maximum brightness level of 100; however, a laptop computer is not required to support a level of zero. The only requirement for values from zero to 100 is that larger values must represent higher brightness levels."
