By and large X is no longer involved in hotkey handling, however the new -evdev sometimes triggers weird conditions, so moving the xorg component to -evdev on that basis. |

xserver-xorg-input-evdev: statusexplanation |
By and large X is no longer involved in hotkey handling, however the new -evdev sometimes triggers weird conditions, so moving the xorg component to -evdev on that basis. |
Some hotkeys are handled by gnome-power-manager. Others are handled elsewhere (e.g. in hardware).
Experiment with using the brightness keys at the vt console, with and without X running. Experiment with them in X but with gnome-power-manager shut off. Use xev to see what key codes (if any) X sees. Here's a xev command string that makes the xev easier to read:
xev | sed -n 's/^.*state \([0-9].*\), keycode *\([0-9]\+\) *\(.*\), .*$/keycode \2 = \3, state = \1/p'
More info on debugging hotkey issues is available at this link:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting#Problem involves missing support for some keyboard keys
If the problem is in a binary application like gnome-power-manager or pm-utils, you may find strace output of it to shed some light.
If it's a hal problem, then comparing lshal output before and after the brightness hotkey is hit might be worth looking at; in theory the lshal output should be identical, so if there is any difference it might hint that the problem lays deeper down.
On some systems there are scripts from acpi-support that play a role in handling the brightness keys. These are in /etc/acpi/. I have a Dell laptop too, and these scripts don't have an effect for me, so I'm guessing this is unlikely to be the case either for you, but I don't know the specifics of your hardware so it's certainly a possibility.
Hope this helps |

Since it's narrowed to be a kernel and g-p-m issue, we can eliminate -evdev at this point. |

Saïvann, thanks so much for testing and confirming the patch works for you (especially since you are the original bug reporter). The kernel is still trying to work it's way into intrepid-proposed for everyone to test. For now I'm closing the gnome-power-manager task as this has been confirmed to be a kernel bug. Thanks. |

The original upstream fix is present in the 2.6.27-11.22 kernel in intrepid-proposed, but this fix only covers the "Dell Inc." case; rolling back the bug state, since it appears another fix is still needed here.
Andrew, the date of "intrepid-updates" is actually the deadline after which updates for intrepid *stop* being published; this fix can be made available to users of Ubuntu 8.10 any time before that, developer time allowing. |
