Having the same issues with a MacBookPro 4.1.

Have tried the suggested commands but the brightness doesn't change. I can change the brightness during login and during the first +-10 seconds after login. After this the birghtness is fixed until reboot. Suspending the machine results in maximum brightness and still no control.

The apple_bl module is loaded and reloading the module also doesn't solve the issue.

Previous versions of ubuntu didn't have this problem
