[Pkg-acpi-devel] Bug#521280: how to make acpid react to hotkeys now?

[martin f krafft]

I've read all of the documentation on thinkpad-acpi and I think
I understand it; I also understand what it's trying to do and
acknowledge that it is progress.

However, no matter how hard I try, I cannot figure out how to make
my system react to Fn-FX keypresses on the Thinkpad X40.

I used to have Fn-F1 and Fn-F2 in use, and while the latter
generates an X event that gets translated into 0x0 "NoSymbol",
I cannot get any reaction (neither input nor netlink) from Fn-F1,
even after

  lapse:/sys/devices/platform/thinkpad_acpi# cat hotkey_all_mask > hotkey_mask

How am I supposed to react to these events nowadays?
