Failed to build mba6xbl-dkms_0.0.3_all.deb and http://miek.nl/downloads/2015/mba6xbl-dkms_1.0.0_all.deb
Installed from source worked fine except that xorg.conf was put into /etc/X11/ instead of /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/
Followed instructions here to fix (except I put it in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ )

You don't actually need an xorg.conf, just having the following file should do:

$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/98-mba6bl.conf
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel Graphics"
Driver "intel"
Option "Backlight" "mba6x_backlight"
EndSection

and removed /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf
