I can confirm this problem... Also using a SL400 with 9.04 and noticed that the backlight buttons do not seem to function. When they are pressed (either fn+home or fn+end) the backlight is set to 0 or 1 and can only toggle between those two settings.
cat /sys/class/ backlight/ acpi_video0/ brightness
The brightness settings do work at higher numbers
the fallowing will max it out. backlight/ acpi_video0/ brightness
echo 13 > /sys/class/
in 8.10 the brightness keys also were backwards, but you could always increase the backlight by lowering it, now you can't even do that, but the keys do seem to move it in the right direction (between 0 and 1)
