It's set to the max by default, after booting

Well, I have up-to-date kernel, just tried 2.6.28-rc6 and only acpi_video0 (I
don't have acpi_video1). I tried playing with acpi_video0:

sony:~ # echo 1 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness
sony:~ # echo 2 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness
sony:~ # echo 3 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness
sony:~ # cat /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness
3
sony:~ # cat /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/max_brightness
8
sony:~ # cat /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/actual_brightness
3
sony:~ # echo 1 > /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/actual_brightness
bash: /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/actual_brightness: No access

but nothing happens. 

Peuc: which kernel did you use?
