We can't really help you in this forum, since that thinkpad does not use thinkpad-acpi to handle brightness changes. Still, post the *list of files* modified by the patch that used to work. "lsdiff" will give you that. That way we can at least tell you what was being patched, and therefore we might be able to tell you where to look for help. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them.
