I can confirm that. I've just upgraded from gutsy to hardy on my dell inspirion 1520. But I'm using kubuntu (it's guidance-power-manager in kde).
When I'm in kde, pressing Fn+up/down skips one brightness level. And I can see 2 popups showing brightness level (one under another).
In console everything works fine.
I can set any level with 'echo [something] > /proc/acpi/video/VID/LCD/brightness'. I can set any level in guidance-power-manager. I can even increase/decrease brightness level by one with 'dcop guidance power-manager brightnessDown/brightnessUp'
