After which pressing the brightness up + key, Fn+F8, does not increase the brightness of the screen back thereby + rendering my session unusable. I think the brightness level should stop + before it turns off. WORKAROUND: It is possible to workaround this issue by switching to a different vty, Ctrl+Alt+F1, and then back to my desktop session by pressing Ctrl+Alt+F7. The brightness has then been restored to a normal level.
