Hi, I have a dell inspiron N7010, and this PPA fixed my backlight
problem in Maverick; however, not in natty. The backlight interface is
created, but is not controled by Gnome 2.32.1.

uname -a
Linux Rebuild 2.6.38-9-generic #43+kamal~mjgbacklight4-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 29 
04:33:59 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

with dell_laptop.backlight=0
ls /sys/class/backlight/
intel_backlight

without dell_laptop.backlight=0
ls /sys/class/backlight/
dell_backlight  intel_backlight

if I write a value to /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness,
the backlight does change
