	Moving only /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/backlighthelper also workarounds the 
problem. I think one of the commits below from kde-workspace is affecting us:

b9ccb5c97718d17db255e51002d858d5f8fc36e3 
38255bfe57458f961a4e913633ccccfe4d19c542
5257ff19aa3e779a9e07cc49ee82cca7a051b558

	I tried to disable dimming using "kcmshell4 powerdevilprofilesconfig" 
but it did not solved the problem.
