something screwy is going on is going on .. the acpi events though. It is not giving one to one raito on the event generated.
The key generates 2 events:
vidoe LCD0 0000086 00000000
ibm/hotkey HKEY 0000080 00005010

The problem is when you use acpi_listen these are not coming in one to one. The one we care about is
ibm/hotkey HKEY 0000080 00005010

I will try to build a gutsy kernel with thinkpad_acpi v.0.20 later .. the version that comes with gutsy is v0.17.
