This patch does only one thing - uses gint32 instead of glong for brightness levels. There are no other changes to the code. Both auto-dimming and panel plugin work on my 64-bit Ubuntu 13.04 with this patch. To apply, download patch and: sudo apt-get install fakeroot debhelper build-essetial sudo apt-get build-dep xfce4-power-manager apt-get source xfce4-power-manager patch -p0 < xfce4-power-manager-brightness.patch cd xfce4-power-manager-1.2.0 dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -b cd ..

This feature works on my older thinkpad X61(x86 Gentoo Linux), which is why I realized it. power-manager with --debug shows that the change in power supply is realized. The thinkpad X230 has a "Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller" (lspci), which can be controlled via the acpi_video0 in /sys/class/backlight, but it also works via the intel_backlight interface (adding this to backlight_interfaces does not help.) Also the brightness plugin on the panel works and the fn keys work when xfce's volumed is running.

For the impatient, here is how you can build and test the patched package: Create a build directory (e.g. build) and cd to it Download the patch unify_level_brightness_to_gint.patch (provided above) to the directory. sudo apt-get install fakeroot debhelper build-essential sudo apt-get build-dep xfce4-power-manager apt-get source xfce4-power-manager patch -p0 < unify_level_brightness_to_gint.patch cd xfce4-power-manager-1.2.0 dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -b cd .. Now you should have three .deb packages in the build directory.
