Anyway I think the levels are not hardcoded but computed from the brightness levels and brightness_max, if you look at 255/5 it's 51, which is exactly what the levels are multiples of...

yes the 5 "new" levels are roughly 255 divided by 5 or in 51 intervals.
i made a quick widget to get the very dim screen (brightness 2), when you don't want to disturb anybody, it has an on/off function, also when the screen is turned off & on the normal setting will be restored, this widget will work on the N900 without this mod, with this mod & my old custom brightness mod
