... and is there a way to set a minimum value so the screen doesn't go dark?
0x01000 is a reasonable medium. Very dark but slightly readable.
0x00500 makes the screen almost completely dark.

Bug description:
I have a Sony Vaio VPCCW21FX (Nvidia 310M) running Lucid.

After I installed nvidia-bl-dkms 0.16.10, the brightness buttons showed the 
brightness indicator but it didn't move.
Manually writing values to /sys/class/backlight/nvidia_backlight/brightness 
turn the backlight completely off (the backlight only turned back on after a 
suspend/resume).

Then I copied sony brightness scripts from here:

... after that, using the brightness buttons on the laptop turned the screen 
off as well.
