I am having the same problem. Actualy if I do "restart acpid" then acpi_listen will detect both keys: sony/hotkey SNC 00000001 00000010 sony/hotkey SNC 00000001 0000003b sony/hotkey SNC 00000001 00000011 sony/hotkey SNC 00000001 0000003b
but if I do acpid -l and then acpi_listen it will only detect one key and with different codes sony/hotkey SNC 00000001 00000010 sony/hotkey SNC 00000001 0000003b I am running Ubuntu maverick. Anyway .. I made a scipt similar to Tobias (my acpi file for brightness has a different path.. /proc/acpi/video/OVGA/LCD/brightness) but the system never calls the file.. maybe because the wrong event code is send. Any update on this would be appreciated. Thanks. On Fri, Sep 17, 2010 at 3:19 PM, K.
