I make some diff files for the scripts, you should just reinstall hal
and hal-info ( "sudo aptitude reinstall hal hal-info" )

then patch them with the commands :
sudo
patch /usr/lib/hal/scripts/linux/hal-system-lcd-get-brightness-linux
hal-system-lcd-get-brightness-linux.diff

sudo
patch /usr/lib/hal/scripts/linux/hal-system-lcd-set-brightness-linux
hal-system-lcd-set-brightness-linux.diff

They are for the Intrepid version, so they should work
