Which mode of xbacklight are you using?
please refer to http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9625#c7

Hmm, xbacklight will not looking for /sys/class/backlight/fujitsu-laptop/ dir
at all. So the invalid value from "brightness" has no impact to xbacklight.

In fact, the xbacklight looks for the "actual_brightness" rather than the
"brightness" file.

Khashayar, could you give a more detailed description of the problem you get
please? i.e. why you think the xbacklight is confused?
