I can confirm that setting brightness, which is Fn+Up and Fn+Down in my laptop as well, is the cause of the problem. Also to me xev showed keycode 232 and 233. Watching recent updates, I sow acpid 1.0.10-3 -> 1.0.10-4. Restarting acpid (/etc/init.d/acpid restart) stops the problem until brightness is set again. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
