[Bug 847001] [NEW] Adjusting display brightness is very slow on Dell E5410 with Natty.

 

Public bug reported:

Changing the brightness via FN key combination or via the brightness applet is very slow.
the CPUs don't seem to go to 100%, but the adjustment process seems relatively slow.
The mouse cursor is also sluggish.
Reinstalled the OS twice, but not because of this issue and the problem seems to persist.
