OK, I did some testing with these kernels:

2.6.22.14
   + thinkpad-acpi-0.18-20071112_v2.6.22.12
   + manually changed KEY_BRIGHTNESSUP & KEY_BRIGHNTESSDOWN -> KEY_RESERVED

2.6.23.8
   + thinkpad-acpi-0.18-20071112_v2.6.23.1
   + uvesafb-0.1-rc3-2.6.23-rc-3
   + manually changed KEY_BRIGHTNESSUP & KEY_BRIGHNTESSDOWN -> KEY_RESERVED


I could get an event in showkey for the mute button when using kernel 2.6.22.14.
This does not work with 2.6.23 and 2.6.24-rc3.

The power button works on neither kernel.

For the other buttons it seems that Xorg is interfering. When I shut X down I'm 
suddenly getting acpi events for the ThinkVantage button and FN+Space. They emit 
events in showkey as well. When restarting X these events are no longer 
triggered. Also the FN+F7 combination emits an event in showkey as long as X is 
not running.

I have Xorg 7.3 with xorg-server 1.4 installed here and use the nvidia beta 
drivers 169.04.

Another weird thing is that brighntess_up (FH+Home) additionally triggers 
acpi-event "ibm/hotkey HKEY 00000080 00001010"


Any ideas ?

Thanks,
Jens
