Bug Description

Binary package hint: hotkey-setup

In an fully up to date jaunty install, on an IBM x31 laptop, I am not getting notifications for brightness changes (I'm sure I used to get these).

There appears to be no notifications of the brightness changes via hal (according to lshal -m).

ii acpi-support 0.121 scripts for handling many ACPI events
ii acpid 1.0.6-9ubuntu4 Utilities for using ACPI power management
ii hotkey-setup 0.1-23ubuntu12 auto-configures laptop hotkeys
ii hal 0.5.12~rc1+git Hardware Abstraction Layer

This seems to be the same as bug 222796, but that is fixed apparently ... Could it be a regression from bug 355300?
