Hmm, I have updated my X server, and it now works with
ACPI_VIDEO... which means that this is probably not affecting huge
number of people.

Hmm... something is still funny. I have 

root@amd:/sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0# echo 1 > brightness
root@amd:/sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0# echo 0 > brightness
root@amd:/sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0# cd ../acpi_video1/
root@amd:/sys/class/backlight/acpi_video1# echo 0 > brightness
root@amd:/sys/class/backlight/acpi_video1# echo 7 > brightness
root@amd:/sys/class/backlight/acpi_video1# echo 0 > brightness


...and both acpi_video0 *and* acpi_video1 works... strange.
