Tried kernel 2.6.25-rc8 and brightness works! So there are fixes upstream. Also it's very quick too (unlike it being slow and sluggish). One thing is the thinkpad-acpi probably neededs to be moved up to 0.19. I'll try and fine the hardy kernel git tree and see if I can find the right upstream patches to fix this problem.
