Sorry, it turns out that this is actually fixed. It seems that the hotkeys are working, but they are nowhere near sensitive enough.

This bug was fixed in the package xserver-xorg-video-intel - 2:2.11.0-1ubuntu1 --- xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.11.0-1ubuntu1) maverick; urgency=low [ Christopher James Halse Rogers ] * Merge from Debian experimental. Remaining Ubuntu changes: - debian/apport-gpu-error-intel.py, debian/xserver-xorg-video-intel.udev, debian/xserver-xorg-video-intel: Add apport script to collect debug information on GPU hangs - rules: Install udev rule to run the script when the kernel detects hung GPU - 101_copy-fb.patch: Adds feature to driver so Xserver can draw root windows with no background. This enables smooth boot with Plymouth. - control: Add Recommends on intel-gpu-tools to xserver-xorg-video-intel package for use by GPU hang scripts. - xserver-xorg-video-intel.preinst.in, xserver-xorg-video-intel.postinst.in, rules: Don't install /etc/modprobe.d/i915-kms.conf, and remove it on upgrades. At best it's redundant (as the kernel defaults to KMS), at worst it breaks the ability to disable KMS. [ Robert Hooker ] * Add 102-disable-page-flipping-v2.patch: Disables page flipping support which is causing frequent hangs, but leaves the events. * Add 103-mbp-backlight-support.patch: Enables xrandr backlight control for macbook's using the mbp_backlight module.

From ppa, I installed xserver-xorg-video-intel version 2:2.11.0-1ubuntu1~xup and then nvidia-bkms-0.16.9 lucid, but the problem persist, I can't change the brightness. I try also without nvidia-bkms.
