Thanks to Tim Anderson's blog I was able to get my Bluetooth and brightness controls working:

You see, the driver that enables your Bluetooth also enables your brightness control. This is done by creating a script file that turns it on at start-up.
Step 1: Change to the directory where we are going to have the script file.
Type Ctrl-O to exit and Ctrl-X to exit.
Step 5: Make the script executable.
Your Bluetooth should now be working as expected.
