Bug Description
Before upgrade to Jaunty the sound up, down and mute keys and brightness up/down combox (Fn+Home, Fn+End) caused a small window to appear. This window showed sound and brightness level.
Recently I upgraded to Jaunty and now I don't see this window. However brightness and sound changes.
How can I get this indicators back?

I can confirm this too. I have two Thinkpads: T40 (upgrade) and T41 (clean installation) and both are not working with jaunty. I noticed that changing value via brightness Gnome applet changes hardware settings, but NOT vice versa. And sound is completely separate: hotkeys are changing physical volume, but doesn't change Ubuntu's volume AND vice versa.
Of course system is up-to-date.
