I think the brightness not working is due to some problems in the
proprietary nvidia drivers. I've tried to contact nvidia about this
before but they've been unresponsive. Save yourself the trouble and
just use the vesa driver. Brightness works for me fine using Fn+Home,
Fn+End without any special settings. You can always switch back to the
nvidia driver if you need high performance for gaming or such.
