What Thinkpads DO support 16 brightness levels?? I have an X60s and so
far have only seen 8 levels.

thinkpad_acpi loaded by default and now the Fn+Home/End buttons don't do
anything! There's no an acpi event, no input event, doesn't change the
brithgness nor does kmilo detect anything.

(from dmesg):
thinkpad_acpi: ThinkPad BIOS 7BETD2WW (2.13 ), EC 7BHT40WW-1.13
thinkpad_acpi: Lenovo BIOS switched to ACPI backlight control mode
...


xbacklight works just like before .. which is not so well, since
xbacklight =50 is brighter than xbacklight =70 for ex. and it flickers
too.
