Same problem on Acer Aspire 5738. And brightness adjustment didn't work
on Jaunty, either.

Besides, the screen never seems to reach its full brightness and it
flickers sometimes.

Bug description:
Binary package hint: devicekit

Worked fine in 9.04 & previous.

Brightness keys only have failed; all other fn keys still function as intended.

Brightness gnome-panel applet works, but occasionally reports it can't recover data when it can. (not seen since Karmic-RC) 

Via KeyboardShortcuts debug process there is no determinable response from the brightness keys at all. All other fn keys give expected output.
