In my HP Folio 13 laptop with Ubuntu 13.04 the brightness control works with the slider in the system Brightness & Lock settings, but the brightness function keys don't. Also, the brightness level is set to maximum on every boot.
Is there a way to make them work and make the system keep the brightness level set in the previous session?
Some information about my laptop concering this issue:
ls /sys/class/backlight
intel_backlight
ls /sys/class/backlight/*/brightness
/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness
