Since I'm not an expert, I don't have a clue what are 'acpi_video0' / 'acpi_video1' and if they work or not. But I can provide you with all info you need - just give me instructions how to extract them from my Ubuntu system. Thank you very much for your help.

Boot a laptop. 2. Set a different screen (or keyboard) backlight brightness level. 3. Reboot. RESULT: Backlight is not memorized. FIX: A. For Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and 14.04 LTS install my package from PPA sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nrbrtx/sysvinit-backlight sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install sysvinit-backlight NOTES: 1. If you have installed previous non-deb version, please remove it carefully manually sudo rm /etc/rc?.d/?25backlight /etc/init.d/brightness /etc/rc?.d/?25brightness 2. If you have installed previous version from my PPA on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, please reinstall the package by: sudo apt-get purge sysvinit-backlight sudo apt-get install sysvinit-backlight 3. Version 0.1ubuntu1 supports save/restore of keyboard backlight too. B. Ubuntu 14.10 is at EOL (from July 2015), Ubuntu 15.04 is at EOL (from January 2016), Ubuntu 15.10 is near EOL (really at July 2016), so users should upgrade them to Ubuntu 16.04 (see C below). My script is incompatible with these Ubuntu versions - remove it with sudo apt-get purge sysvinit-backlight sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:nrbrtx/sysvinit-backlight C. Ubuntu 15.04, 15.10 and 16.04 LTS have systemd-backlight@.service. It saves and restores screen and keyboard backlight levels. My script is incompatible with these Ubuntu versions.
