[hardy] brightness control now only has three levels

[Francisco Borges]

Hello,

I am running Hardy (a decision I deeply regret FWIW) on a Dell
Inspiron 6400, and now the brightness control (which use to recognize
8 levels) jumps from 100% -> 42% -> 0%.

If I increase it from zero it goes 0% -> 57% -> 100%.

Is anybody else experiencing the same?

Kind regards,
