Re: ACPI regression in 2.6.25-rc6 (function keys stop working)

I am seeing the same problem on my Lenovo 3000 v100. The function keys
stopped working.

tim@tim-len:~$ cat /proc/interrupts

The problem goes away when reverting 2c81ce4c9c37b910210f2640c28e98a0c398dc26

Reverting the above and applying the patch in comment #38 of bug #9998
also works (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9998).

Cheers,
Tim
