Title:
  Maverick regression: Dell M1330 backlight brightness messed up

Status in “acpid” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The Dell M1330 backlight has exactly 8 levels of brightness. I expect
  each press of the brightness adjustment keys to change the brightness
  by one level. When I use the keyboard to adjust the brightness in
  GNOME, it sometimes changes by one level, and sometimes changes by two
  levels.

  In Karmic, the buttons worked like I have describe above. In Lucid,
  everything worked correctly. In Maverick, we're back to the same
  behavior as in Karmic. So this is a regression in functionality.
