I tested 2.6.27-11.21 and brightness adjustments were broken there as well. It seems quite likely to be a regression introduced by the fixes for bug 257827; per the discussion with apw in that bug, adding "options thinkpad_acpi brightness_enable=1" to /etc/modprobe.d/options as a workaround causes the brightness settings to work again. apw did ask that I test with a Jaunty kernel to see if the problem exists there as well; is there any tips or tricks to installing a jaunty kernel on intrepid? Otherwise I suppose I could boot one of the jaunty livecds.
