Brightness hotkeys disabled after pressing Numlock

[Marc Jauvin]

On Intrepid Ibex, the brightness hotkeys on my Thinkpad T61 (Fn-Home/Fn-End) stop working after I enable Numlock (Fn-ScrLk).

It seems enabling Numlock creates an entry in ~/.gconf/desktop/gnome/peripherals/host-{hostname}/0/%gconf.xml (to save the Numlock state I guess). Once this entry exists, Brightness will no longer work (even after reboot). If I delete the file in .gconf and remove the ~/.gconfd/saved_state file, then everything is working again after login.

I tested this in Hardy, and it does not create the problem (but does create the same file in .gconf after enabling Numlock)

I'm running a daily update of Intrepid, with all latest packages.
