Umerging and reopening since I still have this problem. Not sure if it's a kernel or X.org problem though!

Pressing the keys in an X session now only causes a short flicker, but does not affect the brightness. However the KDE on-screen display seems to think everything is fine since I can control the level it reports.
Update: the on-screen display is now stuck at 42%.I am now running kernel 2.6.24-rc4 with xserver-xorg-core 2:1.4.1~git20071119-1, xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.2.0-1 and thinkpad-acpi 0.18-20071203 (from patch):

It doesn't matter if I set the brightness_enable=1 option to thinkpad-acpi. Marcus
