To be exact, I tried to write 1 when the value was 0 and vice versa. In
both cases the machine locked up.

I already read a bit about the problem on the net, so I think I have a
basic idea of what you mean about the problem behind.

Albeit not satisfying, at least the intel_backlight interface works
after resume, and I usually don't change the brightness every few
minutes. Therefore I can live with the workaround mentioned. Furthermore
I tried to work around with the acpi_backlight=vendor kernel parameter.
To my surprise with this parameter set intel_backlight seems to be used
behind the scenes when the Fn-F6/7 keys are pressed. But after resume
the backlight stayed off, hence I don't followed this approach any
further.

Thank you once again.
