Previously I'd been changing my laptop screen brightness by directly changing the value of /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness; But recently I noticed that intel_backlight directory is disappeared, and I can't change the screen brightness.

There has been another directory named ideapad in backlight directory which contains files and directories listed bellow:

-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Aug 10 09:57 actual_brightness
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Aug 10 10:05 bl_power
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Aug 10 10:05 brightness
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    0 Aug 10 10:05 device -> ../../../VPC2004:00
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Aug 10 09:57 max_brightness
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root    0 Aug 10 10:05 power
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Aug 10 10:05 scale
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    0 Aug 10 09:57 subsystem -> ../../../../../../../class/backlight
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Aug 10 09:57 type
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4096 Aug 10 09:57 uevent

I tried changing ideapad/brightness, but it didn't effect on screen brightness.

Now, How can I change my screen brightness, Or how can I bring intel_backlight back?

I tried many solutions suggested in other posts and forums, but none of them worked.

My ubuntu grub was updated, by running ubuntu with previous grub, the intel_backlight/brightness came back.

In my case, I had to come back to grub 5.19.0. You can find out here how to change your running grub version.

I sit in a Tesla and translated this thread with Ai:

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
