Ah, yes.  That issue again.

My answer to Ubuntu is, and it has always been "Don't Do That".  It is that
simple.  Either the thinkpad does it fine by itself (so you must make sure
you try to change the brightness yourself only if you get brightness up/down
from an external keyboard or somesuch), or the thinkpad has a proper ACPI
BIOS that should be used for all brightness changes in sync with whatever
X.org thinks should happen.
