Backlight hotkeys are working much better in Intrepid Beta on my Vaio SZ650, Intel 965.

The on-screen indicator came up, showing me that GNOME was aware of my keypresses, but backlight only changed after I ran this command:

]~$ xrandr --output LVDS --set BACKLIGHT_CONTROL native

I did not have to install xbacklight nor edit sonybright.sh, nor restart acpid.
