That definitly was me :-)
I "solved" it by reinstalling that thinkpad - kind of. In hindsight I am quite sure that I have to blame NVIDIA for that problem - not the first time :-(
I used an image for (re)installing that notbook. Well, that the image was taken from a thinkpad with NVIDIA GPU, but that notebook had an ATI. No big deal (usually). I removed all nvidia stuff and the notebook worked. But kpowersave did not.

Sorry, the way I phrased c) makes it very hard to understand. Here's another attempt:
c) after going into KPowerSave settings and selecting a power scheme on the first tab "display brightness" and "CPU speed" are greyed out and marked as "not supported"
To make things even more mysterious HAL is marked as "enabled". I also looked at /etc/dbus-1/system.d/hal.conf and I don't see anything suspicious there (though I'm not an expert on DBus and HAL).
I also found a thread from 2012 where someone reported identical problem: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::2964 That problem was not solved back then. Perhaps today someone can offer a solution.
