Ok, I have found temporary solution.

In grub i have the following line:

...
linux   /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.38-9-generic-pae 
root=UUID=b0da63e6-8a8d-4671-bb75-cd25c00f6585 ro vga=792  quiet splash 
nomodeset video=uvesafb:mode_option=1440x900-24,mtrr=3,scroll=ywrap vt.handoff=7
....

If I change it to:

linux   /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.38-9-generic-pae
root=UUID=b0da63e6-8a8d-4671-bb75-cd25c00f6585 ro vga=792

the brightness control works. One boot ago I reinstalled nvidia-current.
I will try to reboot and check if it still works.
