Upgraded and writing this from karmic alpha-2; I could not report before
because there are so many bugs and issues which make this Macbook1,1
unusable in Ubuntu [from intermitent WiFi up to X11 hanging because the
new KMS :(]...

The good news is that this bug is almost resolved: in Mac OS X 10.4
there are 17 levels of brightness including no light; in Ubuntu there
are 21 levels of which the two brightest seems to be the same (repeated:
same brightness) and the two darkest seems to be the same (repeated: no
light); But the feeling and user experience is the expected: no random
jumps of light and decreasing/increasing the brightness works as
expected.

If this works the same in the final karmic release, I would consider
this bug closed.

Thanks,
