The /sys backlight interface doesn't work for me. Fn+F{1-12} do not work at all (no events). Hardware button for cdrom-eject and s1-button, too. Hardware buttons for mute, vol-down, vol-up do work, though. Wireless switch does something, I'm just not sure yet what it does, dmesg says "rfkill switch must be enabled for wireless to work" or something along those words.

I attached an egrep -i "ACPI|sony" of dmesg. Mike
