The problem still happens with Ubuntu 14.04.

I'm using an Asus K43SD (Intel® Pentium(R) CPU B970 @ 2.30GHz × 2 and GeForce 610M/PCIe/SSE2 GPU).

Steps to reproduce:

1. Using Settings > Brightness & Lock (or Brightness Indicator <https://launchpad.net/~indicator-brightness/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages>), set the screen brightness to minimum (see attachement for details).
2. Wait until the screen turns off (in my case, 5 minutes).
3. Wake up the screen by moving the mouse/typing on the keyboard
→ the screen brightness is back to 100% (Not OK)
→ Brightness indicator indicates brightness=0
→ Brightness level in Settings is also to the minimum, which is in contradiction with the fact that screen brightness is to the max.

If I scroll down on the brightness indicator, the screen will immediately go to the dimmest brightness.

I hope a solution can be found for this issue! :)
