Well, Lenovo stuff is normally straightforward. I have used the
following on the x250:

$ cat /etc/acpi/events/lenovo-brightup

event=video[ /]brightnessup
action=/etc/acpi/lenovo-bright.sh up

$ cat /etc/acpi/events/lenovo-brightdown

event=video[ /]brightnessdown
action=/etc/acpi/lenovo-bright.sh down

$

The script /etc/acpi/lenovo-bright.sh is attached to this email and is
pretty straigthforward, apart from a bit of sugar aroud the essential
stuff.
