Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
Ubuntu 9.04 - Jaunty Jackalope
apt-cache policy yields:
Installed: 2.24.2-2ubuntu8
Candidate: 2.24.2-2ubuntu8
Version table:

LCD brightness control does not work in 9.04 using an acer aspire (I'm have a
5315 - others with the same problem have different models of the aspire)
Lowering the brightness works fine, but increasing the brightness does not
work. The screen flickers a few times, as if it went up and then immediately
back down, though it does actually increase most of the time. However, the
brightness meter in the notifications area goes immediately to the lowest
brightness.
killing gnome-power-manager does fix the problem, currently, I'm
running with g-p-m disabled in my startup applications
