Hi, I too am affected by this exact same bug, but it's on my laptop
rather than on a desktop.

Hi, I'm having this same problem on a Gateway MX6440 laptop too. The
symptoms are similar, I am able to use keyboard functions to adjust the
brightness, but not the applet. I've loaded the "dcdbas" kernel module
as suggested by this thread, but it has not helped.

Can confirm that this is also a problem on a Gateway MX6440 laptop.
Running Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid, so it's still a problem after at least two
major releases.
