The problem is in the kernel 2.6.27-10 works correctly even in new
gnome-power-manager, you were definitely right

2.6.27-11 makes brightness
I have to say that a downgrade of g-p-m was only enough to re-enable
the brightness panel applet. But when moving the cursor up and down
the brightness does not change.
Maybe I should try to boot into linux 2.6.27-9 like you Scott!

I have noticed the same problem, though mine happened after a kernel
update from the proposed branch 2.6.27-11-generic, When I boot in too
2.6.27-9 all is fine, though 2.6.27-11 kills the brightness control.
Other power management seems OK though I have not really tested this
yet, but CPU scaling
