I tend to assume that anything developed by Nokia is closed-source,
unless they started from an existing GPL project to save money and
therefore can't close it.

  $ dpkg -S /usr/lib/mce/modules/libfilter-brightness-als.so 
  mce: /usr/lib/mce/modules/libfilter-brightness-als.so

There's no mce in http://repository.maemo.org/pool/os2008/free/m/ nor it
is mentioned in http://repository.maemo.org/dists/os2008/free/source/Sources
