"3) On pressing F5 and F6 keys (Macbook Pro keys for adjusting keyboard
backlight), I should be able to reach 0% and 100% keyboard backlight"


I get this same behaviour, only it's F8 that is supposed to take me to 0% on my MBP 1,1.

F10 (my brighten button) takes me right up to 100%. One would think that
this should be gradual.

The interesting thing is that both F9 (my dimmer button) and F8 (my cut-
to-0% button) mirror each other in that they both perform the same
function, gradually dimming the keyboard back-light, so I don't have
cut-to-0% functionality.

  4) -By continuously pressing F5 I can reach 0% keyboard backlight but the Gnome/Unity popup indicator shows 100%
      -If I am at 0% keyboard back-light and press F6 once, I immediately reach about 100% keyboard back-light and need to press F5 up to the desired value
