I'm not sure if I really use KMS but I added an option to the kernelboot in 
order to disable it:
Sep 13 19:41:55 ubuntu kernel: [    0.000000] Command line: 
BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31-10-generic 
root=UUID=d9aeca27-f2de-4b4b-ac98-9ff714300820 ro quiet splash 
libata.force=noncq nomodeset

Still unable to dim the display. When using the hotkeys on my laptop I
get a notificationwindow showing the dimming of the backlight but it
does not actually happen.
