Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
Small plasmoid for controlling brightness of LCD in laptops with smartdimmer tool installed - I guess it exists only on laptops with Nvidia graphic cards.
Install: plasmapkg -i nvidia-brightness.zip
Use +/- plasmoid buttons or mouse wheel while over the plasmoid to change brightness.
Tested on Sony Vaio AW31, with smartdimmer version: NVClock SmartDimmer adjustment tool version 0.8b4

- I've just installed KDE 4.4.1 on my laptop, I'll check this evening if it works on it, if not I'll try to post new version.

smartdimmer -g
from command line, it should return current brightness.
smartdimmer -s val
should set brightness to val.

Error!
Smartdimmer is only supported on certain (HP/SamsungSony/Zepto) laptops using a Geforce 6200/7x00Go/8x00Go. If you want support on your laptop contact the author.
any chances your current/future version can work?

If you have some programming/Linux skills, you can try to change plasmoid source to control brightness in your PC - you have to find the right command for your laptop, maybe something like echo brightnessVal >/some/brightness/file.
Or maybe as the error is saying, contact the autor of smartdimmer (-:
