Comment 30 for bug 181057

I found a usable workaround

I found a hal keymap for acer here:
http://ecarux.de/files/misc/30-keymap-acer.fdi
German blog entry for that is here:

I installed it to /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop

Please note that this is just a workaround, because the package hal-info contains the same file with different contents. So if afterwards comes an update to package hal-info you have to reinstall the correct file.
