Default Nvidia GT216GLM [Quadro FX 880M] screen brightness problems

Here is screenshot of the range from 0% dim to 100% bright.

It not much.

How do I tell Kubuntu to give more range of dim to bright?
$ lspci | grep VGA
NVIDIA Corporation GT216GLM [Quadro FX 880M]

When my Linux Lenovo W510 went into hibernation on Kubuntu,
the screen never regains the original bright of screen until
I boot again.

When the dual boot hibernates on Windows, it keep the bright
screen when it recovers. So it just is Linux that is dark.

The keyboard has a blue (Fn) (Home) for increasing bright
of screen, but it does not work. Also not working is the
(Fn) (End) which decreases brightness.

When all is good, I press those two buttons and up comes
this little screen bright bar which goes from 100% to 0%
and vice versa, but does almost nothing (very little change).

So, the keys work but not by much.
Only Linux has problems.

Any advices to help me overcome the screen dim light
when Kubuntu leaves and returns from hibernating?
