I have a fresh install on natty on my Dell Studio 1558, The brightness keys do NOT work with the last PPA update with kernel 2.6.38-11.
If I boot with the previous kernel the brightness keys work as expected. 2.6.38-10-generic-pae #46+kamal~mjgbacklight4-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 15 03:10:48 UTC 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux I have been following your fixes since Oct when I retired my Debian workstation and switched to using Ubuntu on my laptop.
