Now I noticed that brightness control doesn't work in Ubuntu (FN Keys show KDE Dialog Brightness changed but display stays at full Backlight). Even writing to /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness doesn't change the brightness level. In Gentoo everything was working fine, display backlight responded to KDE and/or to /sys/class/backlight/... . As I now I had a bug Ticket at Kernel org with user Tux12Fun an it was implemented long time ago into the Kernel Main Line. But I can't find the Ticket on Kernel.org now :-( So I try to provide all the information i can collect from the old installation.

Kernel Config of my old Gentoo attached. I hope we can mange it to get backlight control working on Ubuntu as it's nearly inpossible to work with full backlight at night :-( Thank you for your work.
