This bug is still present for me. (up-to-date 14.04, nvidia-331, gtx 770 4gb) If I minimize a window and then switch to it with alt-tab, it will come up black *every time*. However, I found out today that if I disable *just* the un-minimize animation using unity-tweak-tool, the problem goes away.

This patch is for GNOME 3.2 that permanently disables gnome-settings- deamon's ability to step-up and step-down the backlight. For those who still can't get the correct brightness steps, this is a workaround. It works perfectly on my Lenovo Thinkpad x220. I'm not usually a code hacker or patcher
