Hi,
	I've got a Sony Vaio VGN-SZ1VP (dmidecode[1] and lspci[2]).
	Using default kernel (linux-image-2.6.15-27-686) of Ubuntu
	Dapper I've got /proc/acpi/sony/brightness and it works well
	(yes, Ubuntu drivers/char/sonypi.c is patched).
	With any other newer vanilla kernel, 2.6.15/16/17/18, /proc/acpi/sony
	doesn't appear, and it's impossibile to set brigthness, of
	course. Same thing with Ubuntu kernel package
	(linux-image-2.6.17-9-386).
	I tried to port Ubuntu sonypi.c patches to 2.6.18, but it doesn't
	work (I mean, it compiles clean, it "modprobes"[3] clean, but no
	/proc/acpi/sony/ directory).

/proc/acpi/sony comes from the sony_acpi driver, not sonypi.

You should get the latest sony_acpi driver, preferably from the -mm tree which hosts the most up to date version.
