No, I already have this removed for the greater justice. I think I got it: when udev in archlinux updated to 177 and brightness control stopped working, I (unaware of that being a udev problem) started searching for solution and, well, broke something. F.e., I found ~/.Xmodmap file with some strange instructions. >> Although I still don't know why my Volume control scan codes differ >> from those in module-sony keymap file. > > > Do you have xfce4-volumed (and its dep, keybinder) installed?

Perhaps, I'm gonna try removing it form the system. Also, Fn+F1 / F7 / F12 still don't work, though among these 3 I only need Fn+F1 (switch touchpad on/off).
