Hi,

I have a Lenovo Thinkpad T61 with Intel GM965 (with SLED10 preinstalled,
kernel 2.6.16.60-0.23-smp), the brightness Fn keys works perfectly.

BUT, I have installed openSUSE 11 (I prefer it from SLED), and the
brightness Fn keys do NOT work at all.

At Grub boot menu the Fn keys works, but at the moment I boot openSUSE the
Fn keys stop working.

The default kernel (I'm running) is: 2.6.25.11-0.1-default

But I also have tried with kernel:
- 2.6.26-30.1
- 2.6.27-rc2.g796aadeb.17.1

And the problem still remains.

This is de ouput from 'thinkpad-acpi' :

I have played with the hotkey mask but it's always the same, I have also
played with the parameters of 'video' module and 'thinkpad-acpi' but the
problem still remains.

Thanks.
