Bug Description

eeepc-config installed on eeebuntu NBR 2.0 for EeePC 900

It appears that when eeepc-config is installed along with acpi-support both packages process the Volume Mute/Decrease/Increase hotkeys. This results in the mute operation toggling sound off then back on again and volume decrease or increase adjusting the level by two increments.

Setting the following in /etc/default/eeepc-config restores expected operation of the hotkeys:

EEEPC_HOTKEY_MUTE_TOGGLE=""
EEEPC_HOTKEY_VOLUME_DOWN=""
EEEPC_HOTKEY_VOLUME_UP=""

I don't know if eeepc-config could be installed as an alternative to acpi-support (currently this isn't possible) or whether eeepc-config would have to defer to acpi-support for processing of these hotkeys.
