This bug has not been fixed for me. I have an intel GMA X3100 on an Hasee laptop, and every time I boot into ubuntu I need to adjust the brightness via the gnome-panel applet (fn keys do not work). I also experienced the bug of vlc suddenly turning the brightness all the way down, but that doesn't always happen and also affects totem and mplayer.
