Title:
Fn keys such as brightness and volume stopped working after update
Status in gnome-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in gnome-settings-daemon source package in Precise:

Bug description:
-UPDATE- September 4 - Recent updates reintroduced functional Fn-Keys,
but the Brightness Fn-keys are behaving poorly, compared to before
when they behaved perfectly.
See comment #13
Original report:
--------------------------------
I have a Lenovo Thinkpad Edge 15, happily running Ubuntu 12.04 +
Cinnamon.
Today after updating, certain Fn Function Keys didn't work anymore, like
brightness, volume and mute.
Other Fn keys like Play Pause Next, they still work.
Tried rebooting some more. Google and Launchpad search. Appears this
happened often during the years with older laptops and patches were
released, but now it's back.
Unfortunately, I don't know which package or which update exactly,
because I don't update daily. I think the update must have been a week
old at max.
In short: pressing Fn + F# used to toggle or adjust something and a popup
would appear, indicating the change.
Now, nothing is indicated and nothing is changed either.
I hope someone knows where to look.
