Comment 4 for bug 281951

Percy, thanks a lot!!!

I just replaced all entries in 30-keymap-acer.fdi with the scancodes from my previous post.
This solved *all* problems in X/gnome/etc, except for the brightness increasing/decreasing two times instead of one, which is an acpi script bug, I had found it in Hardy, I'll find it again.

But in *plain* console (e.g. in recovery console) the brightness key still echoes the "?" ("±") character, I want to try to modify /etc/console-setup/boottime.kmap.gz to see if this can be fixed as well.

So I think this bug should be moved to hal-info,
and hotkey-setup should be completely removed from Ubuntu, it's loading without having any effect anywhere.

Thanks again,
Alkis Georgopoulos
