Hi Jeremy, I tried two things:

   1. At the recommendation of Chase (also subscribed to this bug) I
   installed the backported 2.6.37-12-generic-26~lucid1-ubuntu kernel from
   
here.<http://ppa.launchpad.net/kernel-ppa/ppa/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-lts-backport-natty/>No
change in behavior.
   2. At your recommendation, I installed 2.6.37-999-generic #201101190911.
   With this kernel, I actually suffered a regression: I can't change
   brightness at all (even after suspend/resume), either via the hotkeys or via
   the Gnome Power Manager Brightness Applet. The latter used to work no matter
   what (no suspend/resume needed), but now I see a red slash with a circle
   around it at the center of the Brightness Applet icon. It also has a tooltip
   that reads: "Cannot get laptop panel brightness."
