Update:

It seems that the /etc/devfs/conf.d/ directory isn't used by anyone at
all (at least not my system) and therefore /etc/devfs/conf.d/tpb has no
effect. How did it even get into the release? From what I can tell (and
I repeat that I'm very new at this and welcome correction) the Ubuntish
way to set the permissions of /dev/nvram is: add a file named
/etc/udev/rules.d/80-tpb-nvram.rules containing:

KERNEL=="nvram", GROUP="nvram", MODE="0640"

Now, add your user to the nvram group. This group is created by tpb
installation script. Now you /dev/nvram is readable by you, and tpb
loads successfully from Xsession.d. Does this work for everyone else?

However, I'm not sure if this is still important, since there seem to be
other solutions in the works to get OSD on laptops, for example, see bug
357673. Does anyone know what the relationship is between that and this?
