Edit your /etc/rc.local file by adding following lines before exit 0.


# for fixing brightness issue
sudo echo 7 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness

# for fixing bluetooth to disabled at startup
rfkill block bluetooth

# for fixing wireless wlan0 to be disabled at startup
sudo ifconfig wlan0 down




and done restart the system and you will see the change.


Note: Fixes above are independent of laptop's build/brand.
