Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: acpi-support

In Karmic, the key combination to undock a ThinkPad X61 (Fn+F9) has no
effect.  This worked in Jaunty and previous releases.  The key seems to
work, according to acpi_listen:

# acpi_listen
ibm/hotkey HKEY 00000080 00001009

That event is not mapped to anything in /etc/acpi.  The dedicated key on
the dock itself does work as expected.

I believe the fix is as simple as these three lines:

# cat events/lenovo-undock 
event=ibm/hotkey HKEY 00000080 00001009
action=/etc/acpi/undock.sh

# cat undock.sh 
#!/bin/sh

echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/dock.0/undock

I'm not sure why there are dock.1 and dock.2 platform devices.  Anyway,
this fix works for me.
