Bug Description
Laptop model: Asus VX1 'Lamborghini'
functions that do not work:
Fn+F2: toggle wireless (antenna symbol)
Fn+F5: Brightness down (full sun symbol)
Fn+F6: Brightness up (empty sun symbol)
Fn+F2 does not do anything, Fn+F5 and Fn+F6 crash X (or Gnome or Beryl, I'm not sure) and turn the screen black for a few seconds after witch I get back to the login screen. My session is lost.
I was unable to record any keycodes with the 3 methods provided on https:/
At least not for those 3 combinations, other combinations (volume controls for example) do produce output.
Version: Ubuntu 6.10, fully updated it's a clean install. Problem exists with standard Gnome and with Beryl.
Steps to reproduce: Boot, hit the buttons.
Identifying my laptop:
ASUSTeK Computer Inc.
VX1
1.0
Please fix at least the brightness controls, it's driving my crazy and giving my headaches from staring at the full brightness screen all day (and full brightness on a VX1 is really really bright)

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.
