i confirm this bug:

Before i write about the situation on lucid, let me show the situation on karmic:

Karmic:
Graphics only work with option "nomodeset", black screen otherwise. Dimming of backlight does not run out of the box, though the key presses are recognized and the notifications appear. After doing

xrandr --output LVDS --set BACKLIGHT_CONTROL native

dimming works.

Lucid:
Graphic works without "nomodeset". But dimming doesn't. And the xrandr workaround does not work until i boot with "nomodeset"...
