Just updated to Gutsy BETA, and brightness keys don't work anymore.

If I remove the power cable, brightness goes down, but if I plug it back, brightness first comes back, but after a few seconds it goes down again.

I can also see at /var/log/acpid that the script is being called, but it simply does not work. This is the log entry I get from trying to increase the brightness:
