No luck in getting the brightness keys working. Here are some thoughts and links so I don't forget.
This thread is tracking the brightness key bug...
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3649372
I'm running gnome-power-manager version 2.20.0 (according to the applet).
--as shipped this expects uint from dbus (according to http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=469748)
This needs to be compatible with what hal (hardware abstraction layer) is doing.
--how do I determine the hal i'm running?
The Gnome Brightness Applet says "Cannot get laptop panel brightness."
