With recent update to laptop-mode I decided to rework the power saving on my sony vaio. Mostly ok, but it seems laptop-mode is exclusively "grabbing" acpi events somehow. I have modded /etc/acpi/default.conf to trap the function keys for screen brightness and then control the LCD.
However laptop-mode seems to have taken over and default.conf is no longer processed by acpid on an event, or events are not getting there. How can I either get acpid to process events through the normal files, or some other method to allow manual control of screen brightness and still keep acpi access for laptop-mode? BillK
