That is, if you echo values directly to > the sysfs attribute, and do not use hotkeys. Sorry, I understand now. echo value to /sys/class/backlight/eeepc/brigthness works fine. The brightness is more or less proportional to the value between 0 to 7 or 8. Between 8 to 15, the increasing is lighter. Zero does not light off the screen. This is really different that the hotkeys do. The hotkeys change the brightness **and** the value but the effect on the level of the real brightness is really different.
