This bug is again here for Acer TM 2424 in Jaunty Jackalope, 24 april. But now brightness keys are not just reversed, brightness is uncontrollable like a tug-of-war. Brightness decreases and at the same it increases and then again it decreases or increases. It can be controlld at welcome screen and while booting. However, while booting on AC power it sets itself to maximum (not sure this is a bug, but I prefer to use the value of brightness stored in bios, like Ubuntu 8.04 does). It is better to delete the brightness drivers thatconfuse everything related to brightness and leave built-in brightness controls that work without any external drivers.
