Bug Description
The Fn+F8 and Fn+F9 keys are not working on my Clevo W350ST with Kubuntu Raring to change screen brightness of the internal laptop screen. I installed linux-headers-
When trying the following event codes appear correctly:
xev | sed -n 's/^.*state \([0-9].*\), keycode *\([0-9]\+\) *\(.*\), .*$/keycode \2 = \3, state = \1/p'
keycode 36 = (keysym 0xff0d, Return), state = 0x10
keycode 232 = (keysym 0x1008ff03, XF86MonBrightne
keycode 233 = (keysym 0x1008ff02, XF86MonBrightne
And changing:
/sys/class/
changes the brightness of the screen, but pressing the key combination does not. I believe this happens because the key combination is, in fact, changing the value of:
/sys/class/
I have in my package sources:

WORKAROUND: acpi_backlight=
(but this breaks autoswitch to external monitor when connecting one to VGA port)
