Bug Description

Binary package hint: acpi-support

My laptop is Hp (dv6328) using Gutsy/amd64. In Feisty, all Fn keys are working well while in Gutsy only Brightness keys (Fn + f8 or f7 ) don't. Nevertheless, I can adjust the brightness level using kde-power-manager.

Here is a brief log of ( /var/log/acpid ) whenever I press one Fn brightness keys :
