I have applied the karmic "nc-10 backlight" and "scripts" packages from below:
https://launchpad.net/~voria/+archive/ppa
and for the first time ever everything now works on my NC10.
I'm using a very old BIOS btw - I've never been brave enough to try to update 
it through Linux :-p

Perhaps these packages could be added to the repository?

However, 2 other issues worth mentioning:

The "acpi-support" patch from this archive produces a weird effect in
UNR launcher where there are huge delays in the screen reacting to
cursor movements and the fading in/out of different screens (once a
program is running, however, it works at normal speeds)

This effect also occured on the couple of occasions that the backlight
worked without any patches. So there must be something slightly astray
in the repository's acpi-support package.
