So this is not an nvidia chip (as expected), so the problem is unrelated to bug #277589.

And the lshal output shows a laptop_panel device is present and recognized, so it's also not bug #345531.

And you've said that the brightness applet also doesn't work (including in the Ubuntu liveCD), so it's not a hotkey issue.

I'll poke around in the lshal output a bit more, but it looks like this might be a kernel problem.
