Bug Description
Since a recent update, gnome-power-manager don't set correctly the brightness on my XPS m1330.
I move the slide in AC pref and nothing change, I put the slide to the maximum but when I plugin the AC, It doesn't move to the max, I must use the function keyboard shortcut for set correctly the brightness.

I can confirm that in Hardy 64bit up-to-date on my dell xps m1330 brightness controll does not work correctly:
-brightness FN keys seem to send double events: Pressing one time FN+Up or FN+Down changes brightness by 2 levels. Instead of having 8 levels it ends up having 4.
All options like dimming on battery and on idle do not work, consequently I guess.
