Hm. 241 is KEY_VIDEO_NEXT - I thought I'd changed that to be 
KEY_SWITCHVIDEOMODE? 240 is KEY_UNKNOWN. I don't think we've currently 
got an appropriate key to map the ALS button to.

On my test system, that's the "battery with lightning flash" key. I have 
no idea what it's meant to do, or how we're meant to interpret that 
event.

Yup. Unfortunately on my system, it only gets delivered via WMI and not 
via ACPI, so doing the same thing as for the brightness keys doesn't 
look like it'll work.
