Public bug reported:
I've got an Asus G75VW laptop with an nVidia GTX660M video card.
After some tweaking of the xorg.conf file to include "Option
"registryDwords" "EnableBrightnessControl=1"", I am able to use the
Fn+F5 and Fn+F6 brightness control keys (and the brightness slider
inside System Settings > Brightness and Lock), but ONLY after first
going into suspend, and coming back out again.
The expected behavior should be brightness control working directly
after a reboot, not rebooting and going into suspend first.
