using "acpi_backlight=vendor" as kernel parameter doesn't work for me :(
however, some people found solution from this thread: 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/752165

in my case, its true that I can get my backlight work again by using
setpci command and add it to my rc.local file. But when i change my
screen resolution or running apps that needs to change screen
resolution, my screen blank again :(

thats why i recommend to set a keyboard shortcut to run an executable
file containing setpci command, so whenever we change resolution and
blank screen again, all we need to do is only press that keyboard
shortcut. at least it helped me a little.
