I just tested Kubuntu 8.10 RC 1. The bug is still there. I didn't install. I just tested a live CD session.

Actually the bug is worse now: My brightness controls only manage to switch between "dark as hell" and "pretty dark" (back and forth). "Pretty dark" is much too dark to do any work.

Maybe "echo blacklist video | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/local" will still work as a temporary solution (it's good enough for me), but I can't test that without actually installing (and I'm not sure I want to do that since KDE4 is not really usable yet).
