I can't dim my laptop's light

Question

I can't modify my laptop brightness. Is it a BIOS problem? It works in win 7, but doesn't work in Ubuntu. It's an Acer Aspire 5750-6842 laptop with Intel HD graphics 3000 video chipset.

Might be an issue common to aspire line of laptops, give this question a look and see if any of the answers there help. — Oyibo, Feb 01 '13 at 08:01
