Acer TM6292 is a new model, and the driver acerhk.ko is old and supports old models (up to 2005 year). Maybe the problem is in the driver. Maybe this driver should be updated, or we could modprobe acerhk force_series=(something)...

I also have problems with my Acer TM2424. However, I like that Fn+F4 is for hibernating and not for stand by. For "stand by" you can close the lid. My problem is that Fn+left increases brigtness, and Fn+Right decreases it. However, at the same time, the bios does the opposite. The bios and a driver (is it acerhk.ko or another driver?..) are changing brightness in opposite directions (the screens blinks while changing brightness). The rest keys work fine (except for led wifi indicator, but I don't use wifi - not sure if it works). My system is ubuntu 8.04.1 however.
