Title:
  Screen backlight adjustment stopped working on MacBook Pro 5,4 and
  other hardware

Status in gnome-power-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The nvidia-current drivers that have recently become available in
  Natty (270.29) work for me in general, but screen backlight adjustment
  does not work anymore on my MacBook Pro. Other hardware seems also
  affected, e.g an Nvidia GT330M in this thread:
  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10505235

  Neither the keyboard keys nor the brightness applet slider works, the
  applet icon showing a stop sign as usual when brightness adjustment is
  not available.

  Adding this to xorg.conf makes it somewhat work again after a reboot.
  Option "RegistryDwords" "EnableBrightnessControl=1"

  However, this makes only the adjustment work as such; I still don't
  get the notification bubble that appeared with previous drivers, and
  which still appears in Natty when I use the nouveau drivers.
