  The number of brightness levels seems to be 7 in the manager but my
  laptop has 15.  This is not a big problem to manually change the
  brightness (when the on screen bar is empty/full, one gets a new one
  for the additional levels) but it means that dimming the display is
  not so nice as it uses the current 7 levels (it would also be great if
  the dimming level was configurable). 
 
 xfpm only picks what hal gives it, so you have to ask there.

Ah.  On closer inspection, the module thinkpad_acpi was adding
/sys/devices/virtual/backlight/thinkpad_screen which was repoting the
wrong number of brightness levels.  Blacklisting this module fixes the
issue.

Best,
C.
