 This is because changing brightness generate brightness key event. User
turn brightness one step down, event is generated, event is seen by
gnome-power-manager which turns brightness down, event is generated...
all the way down to 0 up up to max.

  This issue is fixable at HAL (hal-info) level. Please
update /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/10-laptop-panel-hardware.fdi
with you model number and also send patch to HAL upstream list.

Nb. this file in F7 still has a typo for other model ("Z31t" instead of
"Z61t")
