I don't really understand where the things are going wrong...
Have you reboot your hal by doing "/etc/init.d/hal restart" as root?
Then you should have in response to "lshal | grep sony-nvidia" this :
laptop_panel.access_method = 'sony-nvidia' (string)
If you have this, it means that you have the right informations about your
hardware...
To test if the patch works, you install the brightness applet and then try
to change the brightness...
If you expected the FN+F5 or FN+F6 to work, you will have to wait a little
since only recent kernels seems to detect correctly de keys...
I hope this will solve your problem
