With the 12.10 kernel 3.5, very function key worked on my Asus N56VJ
except F5, F6 screen backlight. This morning a routine update installed
kernel 3.7 and now F5, F6 work but will only adjust within about the top
ten percent of brightness.

On my new notebook (ASUS N56VM) the backlights did not work by default
so i googled and found the following:
---
or N56V and N76V, you need :
a 3.5 kernel (from quantal)
to get the subwoofer
I add on /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf this line: options
snd-hda-intel
Oh and the backlight of the keyboard is working now by installing the
mentioned package. :-) As well as the function keys accept for the
screen brightness.

I don't think X should be involved in managing these settings. Like
screen brightness, the configuration setting should be set and managed
by Gnome.
For cases where there isn't a driver available for a particular
keyboard, bug reports should be filed against the kernel.
** Package changed:
Okay, this bug report can focus on the request for a cleaner mechanism
to manually switch on keyboard backlights. But I think you should also
file bug report(s) against the kernel for each keyboard you've found
that does not work due to the lack of driver issue.

** Package changed: xorg (Ubuntu) = xserver-xorg-input-evdev (Ubuntu)
