Public bug reported: Brightness control using Fn + F8/F9 has regressed from the 3.8 kernel used in 13.04.
Expected: 9 levels of brightness adjustment using Function Keys Experienced: 5 levels of brightness adjustment with blank levels with "blank" levels where a key press results in no brightness change even though indicator showed change. Regression proved by reverting to 3.8 kernel resulting in expected behaviour.
