Hi Kamal,

still doesn't work for me. I have an Acer travelmate 4230-6704 and can't
change lcd brigthness. My Fn key is not working too (keyboard problem).

tried
echo -n 100 > /proc/acpi/video/VGA/LCD/brightness
sudo setpci -s 00:02.0 F4.B=FF

I'm using
Ubuntu Natty with gnome-power-manager version 
2.32.0-2ubuntu2+kamal~backlight2~n and linux kernel 
2.6.38-8.41+kamal~mjgbacklight3.

lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/PM/GMS, 943/940GML and 
945GT Express Memory Controller Hub (rev 03)
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 
943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML 
Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)

lsmod | grep ^i915
i915                  515415  3 

rodmra@tm4230:/proc/acpi$ ls
ac_adapter  battery  button  event  wakeup

rodmra@tm4230:/sys/class/backlight$ ls

rodmra@tm4230:/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight$ ls

bl_power           device      power           type
