Hi,
I own an Esprimo V-6536 from Fujitsu Siemense.
My hotkeys for brightness are different than those which were in hal-info.

I edited the 30-keymap-misc.fdi with the correct keycodes and then I got functioning Brightness Adjusters.
        <match key="/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer:system.hardware.product" contains="ESPRIMO Mobile">
          <append key="input.keymap.data" type="strlist">e06f:brightnessdown</append>
          <append key="input.keymap.data" type="strlist">e04e:brightnessup</append>
        </match>

If there is more info needed I'd be glad to provide it.
