I've split this out into a seperate topic.

Screen brightness is usually set by the BIOS, and on both systems I've had the BIOS has also managed the setting of the screen brightness.
Have you tried using the hardware keys (usually accessed through the Fn key) to change the screen brightness?
Also, have you ensured that KDE Power Management is enabled?
