Brightness keys reversed on Acer TM notebook

[riu]

Binary package hint: acpi-support

Fn+Left, Fn+Right reversed on Acer TravelMate notebook. Fn+Left is decreasing brightness by bios and increasing brightness by acpi-support - this results in unpredictable behavior.

I wonder if this is the same as described in my comment https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/568611/comments/111 (however, I'm using Kamal's PPA kernel with brightness controls for i915 family).

If it's still an issue in oneiric, can you please follow the "fixing broken keys" section in /usr/share/doc/udev/README.keymap.txt.gz and add the info here? Thanks
