Then I searched to see if I can do it and voilà, I found it. All I had to do was press the ‘Fn’ key (which is usually on the bottom left of the keyboard, next to Ctrl key) and left/right arrow keys. For some laptops it is the up/down keys instead. However on the HP notebook I had later on, had brightness control option under the power management settings.
