Acer brightness issue

[Rodrigo Castrillon]

Hello everyone.

This is what I'm experiencing:

- If brightnes = 0:
1. I press "Fn + >" and brightness increase one step;
2. Press "Fn + >" again and another step is increased;
3. Press "Fn + >" again, but this time 2 steps are increased;
4. "Fn + >" increases another 2 steps;
5. "Fn + >" increases another 2 steps;
6. "Fn + >" increases another 1 step and maximum brightness is reached;

- If brightness = 10:
Same situation happens, but backwards.

- If increasing but decreasing before reach 10:
1. I press "Fn + >" and brightness increase one or two steps;
2. Press "Fn + <" and brightness decrease one step, as expected, BUT brightness notification popup shows that the brightness is increasing;
This also happens backwards.

I have Karmic with ALL updates installed (until now) and I'm running on latest kernel. My laptop is an Acer 5315-2940.

Is there any other information that I can provide to help to get this fixed?

Killing gnome-power-manager makes no difference, brightness changes always in two steps.

Is this issue still reproducible in latest Ubuntu Karmic version?
