Screen Brightness Very Low On Acer Laptop

This might help you in that case:

[edit] the steps described will be slightly different on Fedora:

  1. Edit /etc/default/grub (as root/sudo), change the line:
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="rhgb quiet"

to

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="rhgb quiet acpi_backlight=native"
  1. Regenerate grub:
$  sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

Reboot.
