Thanks Steve, After I looked more deeply into the problem, I found that the problem is not with brightness level changes -- it changes correctly when I press Fn+Up/Down keys.
The problem is that there are 6 brightness levels (as reported in '/proc/acpi/video/VID/LCD/brightness'), which are 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84 and 100, whereas the brightness pop-up (of the new notification system) shows 7 levels; That's why it seems to get confused when showing the brightness levels while the brightness is changing correctly. For example, when LCD brightness is at level 0 (lowest), it still shows the brightness at level 1. I don't know exactly which package I should submit this bug against. Could you help? And sorry if I disscussed the isse in the wrong place.
