    Try using something like https://github.com/Hendrikto/backlight_control. Bind backlight_control +10 to the brightness up key and backlight_control -10 to brightness down key

    I use this backlight_control script, works like a charm. You can also take your brightness all the way down to zero, so still keep the display active (which is great for preventing idle status/timeout in certain apps), whilst reducing power consumption down to a negligible level.
