I've got a Sony Vaio VGN FS285M. I'm using FSFN for handle FN events through "/dev/input/event*" interface but it's needed a few tweaks: * Change "sony_acpi" from 0.2 to a patched version (0.2-PP) that adds "/proc/acpi/sony/fnkey". This patch was in dapper but it isn't in newer releases. * Install FSFN and add it to /etc/rc2.d (or the one you're using). * Change a HAL script because there is a bug in HAL scripts that handle brightness through "/proc/acpi/sony/brightness". I filed a bug for this stuff a long time ago... but the bug still exists. If you are using suspend or hibernate I encourage you to use FSFN over other alternatives because it discovers what device has FN events. Other alternatives need to know exactly what device to use and it changes when resuming from suspend or hibernate.
