X41 (non tablet) owner here: and I've just upgraded to the latest 2.19.6-0ubuntu4 today - and I can now adjust the brightness of my laptop using the Fn keys, however, the GPM brightness indicator that pops up when I do is always either at zero, or at the one up from that. (This is better than it was previously - when previously pressing one direction would send it all the way to the maximum/minimum). However, dragging the brightness bar inside GPM results in the screen flickering very rapidly between full brightness and minimum brightness - as if the full range is every 10% of the bar. And related to that, after setting the desired brightness, and then moving between battery and AC results in the incorrect brightness being set. This is an improvement, I guess, because at the very least I can fall back onto my Fn keys now which act as expected. I would consider this a big and serious regression from Feisty, where the brightness worked fine - all except the gnome brightness indicator would not be in sync with the actual brightness when the Fn keys were used (however, the indicator would pop up, but its value wouldn't change) - and I really hope its sorted before release!
