@Andy Whitcroft, the -11 kernel broke brightness settings on my t61 as
well, I reported it in bug 314119. I am running all of proposed but
don't use the gnome-applet; setting it through gnome-power-manager did
not work but does work with the -10.20 kernel. Manually echoing values
into /proc/acpi/video/VID/LCD0/brightness also doesn't work, which
didn't work in -10.20 either, but echoing values in
/proc/acpi/video/VID1/LCD0/brightness (note VID1 vs VID) did work in
-10.20 to change the screen's brightness, but the /proc/acpi/video/VID1/
path does not exist when the -11.22 kernel is rebooted,
