Different hardware have different brightness scales, for example : - ranges are different ('max_brightness' value) - some hardware turns backlight off when brightness is 0 - some hardware have a linear scale, some do not For example, on an EeePC 1215N, the brightness ranges from 0 to 8 and changes are nearly linear (the increase between 0 and 1 seems similar to the increase between 7 and 8). On a Zenbook UX32VD, the brightness ranges from 0 to 100, with 0 turning the backlight completely off, and changes are a lot less linear (the increase between 1 and 2 seems similar to the increase between 90 and 100). It would be nice to allow configuring a different scale on different hardware so that brightness changes seem more linear.
