Haha, I was just about to file a bug for the opposite of this one. I thought that the way this was working in Gutsy was correct. Up-to-date hardy beta appears to be working "properly" now -- when I press the volume keys on my T41, the hardware volume goes down, but the gnome volume applet stays at 100%.

Adding the tpb package gives a visual representation of what the hardware is doing, but I miss the old way (with the gnome-like volume slider appearing at the bottom), since that's the way it was when I started using Ubuntu and my Thinkpad. :(

Does 4lorne's patch add the gnome slider again when pressing the volume keys?

Also, the Keyboard Shorcuts application (gnome-keybinding-properties) will no longer (since my upgrade from gutsy to hardy beta 1) accept an entry for the Access IBM button. I used it in gutsy to launch a terminal, but now when I try to map the key it doesn't even register and give a number.
