I am currently on a new w520 with Ubuntu 11.04 beta (Linux 2.6.38-8-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Mon Apr 11 03:31:24 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux) with nvidia driver 270.41.03 with the 1000M (BIOS set to use just the nvidia card, optimus disabled) and can confirm similar issues with setting the brightness.
