Bug Description
There are two hotkeys on the HP Pavilion dv6500 series of laptops. The Quick Play and DVD buttons. Previously hotkey-setup was responsible for mapping these keys, but now it looks like hal is mapping these keys. But it's broken.
Line 21 of /usr/share/
<append key="input.
and the line for the DVD button looks ok but it doesn't seem to be working either.
<append key="input.
I've tried substituting different keycodes and restarting hal without any success. As a workaround to get these keys working I've put /etc/init.
Both of these buttons previously worked fine in Hardy.

Hello,
My problem is that after I upgraded to intrepid, hot keys do not work anymore, Fn+F3 used to start firefox, Fn+F1 used to bring up some help window. Those do not work anymore. I had a look at the changelog, does that bug have to do with switching to kbd ?!
Note, I tried /etc/init.d/hotkey start and restart, same thing, keys not working
