Has the fix hit the repositories yet? I still am getting this problem on an Inspiron 8600 with all the latest patches including proposed and backports. When I alter the brightness, the keyboard stops working and the process 'hald-addon-dell' sits at the top of the list output by the 'top' command, until I use ctrl-alt-f1 followed by ctrl-alt-f9 to fix it. So might it be a problem with hald-addon-dell?
