[Jaunty] MacBook 5.1 keyboard backlight not supported

Status in Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL): New
Status in Mactel Support: In Progress
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete

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.
