Ubuntu screen brightness on EliteBook 8530w

Ubuntu versions 10.04 and 10.10 had various issues with the screen brightness on my HP EliteBook 8530w. It wasn't possible to adjust the brightness which was a real problem if the screen dimmed while power saving.

The only fix I've found was to update to Ubuntu version 11.04.
