It looks like the systemd-backlight service (/lib/systemd/system /systemd-backlight@.service) does not restore the brightness level (although it saves it before shut-down). However the following command does restore the saved brightness: sudo /lib/systemd/systemd-backlight load backlight:intel_backlight As a temporary solution to automate it at boot I am using the following line added to the root cron: @reboot /lib/systemd/systemd-backlight load backlight:intel_backlight - Ubuntu 4.10.0-20.22-generic 4.10.8 - Gnome 3.24 Please, let me know if you need more info. Thanks. --- ApportVersion: 2.20.4-0ubuntu4 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: dd 1540 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: GNOME DistroRelease: Ubuntu 17.04 InstallationDate: Installed on 2017-04-12 (13 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-GNOME 17.04 "Zesty Zapus" - Release amd64 (20170411) Lsusb: Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 002: ID 8087:0a2b Intel Corp.
