brightness keys on X61s in nvram

Hi,

how should the brightness keys work on a X61s? I see nothing in xev, so
the NVRAM polling of thinkpad-acpi doesn't seem to do anyting for those
keys.

Is this just due to missing support for the X61s? If yes, here is what
I get in watch hexdump /dev/nvram:

full brightness seems to correspond to this:

0000050 0000 0004 efff 88f3 7201 0720 f200 010f
0000050 0000 0004 efff 88f3 7201 0720 f200 012f

The last byte is for the brightness. The differences between both lines
are a "brightness up" key press. So the 2 seems to be a toggle and the
f is the brightness.

After I press "brightness down", it looks this:

0000050 0000 0004 efff 88f3 7201 0720 f200 010e

next key press:

0000050 0000 0004 efff 88f3 7201 0720 f200 012d

This goes down to:

0000050 0000 0004 efff 88f3 7201 0720 f200 0100

Regards,
Tino
