Public bug reported:

1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> 
About Ubuntu

Fresh install of 16.04.

2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy
pkgname' or by checking in Software Center

Don't know. The guide to identify the package told me all login screen
issues were "LightDM". ubuntu-bug told me that package was not
installed.

3) What you expected to happen

To be able to adjust screen backlight brightness with the dedicated
hardware buttons on the login screen, in order to be able log in. This
works as expected whenever I'm logged in.

4) What happened instead

I had to log in from an almost black login screen with no backlight.

I believe this bug was present in 15.10 as well.
