Is this still a problem? Certainly on my netbook for both 9.10 and the alpha 2 10.04, my screen dims correctly on battery power if I leave the keyboard and mouse unattended for a short period of time i.e. when computer is idling. Was gonna suggest close it out if fixed in the later releases of the software.
