I can confirm that this bug still exists in Kernel 3.0.0-11-generic. The
behaviour is like papukaija said. It is pretty annoying and blacklisting
the module isn't a real workaround, because you won't have any control
over backlight. Only workaround I know is installing
https://launchpad.net/~voria/+archive/ppa. I hope this will get fixed in
some future release.

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Confirmed
