bwalex's script (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hotkey-setup/+bug/357673/comments/63) works well on my ThinkPad X31. Both volume and brightness notifications appear.
Thank you very much!
However, when running from the terminal, I get an endless stream of "brightness new crap occured".
The problem appears to be that my ThinkPad uses the old brightness node (/proc/acpi/ibm/brightness)
However, the new brightness node still exists:
phil@phil-laptop:~$ cat /proc/acpi/video/VID/LCD0/brightness <not supported>
So I have modified it to check for this (again, this is a quick and dirty fix)
