P. Dunbar, Thanks a lot for the hint!

The F-keys for the keyboard backlight work the same way like for the
display. I still feel however that they are not that _responsive_ as
they could/should.

Bug description:
The keyboard backlight on the MacBook 5.1 is not supported as of Jaunty (Ubuntu 9.04) Alpha 5. This is supported in Intrepid (Ubuntu 8.10) by the Mactel PPA packages hal-applesmc, hid-dkms, and possibly nvidia-bl-dkms, though I installed the nvidia-bl-dkms package for Jaunty.
