Hi Daniel.  Had to do a reinstall; hadn't left any space on the drive
for an EFI partition.

I installed the Ubuntu 13.04 x64 release, which came with the 3.8.0-19
kernel.  This had a strange result, which was that the screen was fixed
to minimum (backlight off) brightness, and wouldn't change.  Doing a
software update to 3.8.0-27 fixed the issue, and resulted in the normal
operation which I was expecting.

My previous installation, which booted in legacy bios, had also been
updated to 3.8.0-27.  Brightness wasn't operational on boot or after
resume until a script like Frank's was run.
