Same here, VGN-C2Z, VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G72M [GeForce
Go 7400] (rev a1)
Tested on Karmic, the nVidia display settings only controls contrast
brightness, NOT the brightness of the backlight.
Also area where the SONY logo is very hot, suspecting the backlight is working

This bug is about Intel 965 graphics adapters. Yours is an nVidia, which is
handled by nvclock / smartdimmer.

Same here, on a MacBook Air, Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960
Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
It is not possible to set the xrandr properties, so presumably a problem
with the new xserver-xorg-video-intel driver. This bug seems relevant:
i'm on karmic and
xbacklight as the gnome brightness applet don't work :(
i have an intel GMA 950 card (netbook samsung NC10)
xbacklight -get
No outputs have backlight property

This bug no longer exists in Karmic (has been fixed since Jaunty and no
regressions noted).

A new major version of the -intel driver is now available in Karmic.
This version includes a major reworking of the acceleration
architecture, which resolves a huge number of issues. We do not know
whether it resolves the issue you reported.
Would you mind

This bug is specifically targeted at Hardy and Intrepid in the title.
It's nice that it's fixed in Jaunty, but it's not fixed in Hardy so
shouldn't be reclassified as Fix Released.
