Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to

changes in Ubuntu since that time you reported the bug and your problem

i am using a macbook pro 3.1 with intrepid beta and the nvidia driver. i finally managed to have the backlight keys F1 and F2 working but now i face another problem. when i change the backlight setting, it resets itself after some minutes to an average light level. then i use f2 to increase backlight again and some time later it goes down again.i have deactivated the shade setting in the gnome power management. the light is also turned down while moving the mouse or typing.
