Same Problem here with Macbook 6,1
One hint that might help to track down the problem.
On my System (12.04 LTS Final) the folder /sys/class/backlight is completely 
empty. So i can't pass any Values to brightness Files.
When i try to create a directory inside /sys/class/backlight with mkdir, it 
respondes with the message "file or directory not found" even as root. Touching 
a file gives the same error.
Directory Permissions of /sys/class/backlight are: drwxr-xr-x an i can move 
into with cd

My Mac is booting fromĀ EFI

Please tell me if I can help with any command-output.

Also rebooting does not work on my system and tty0-6 are completely invisible, 
yet interactable.
Is it possible that all these problems are linked to efi-boot?
Cheers
