There is currently a updated panasonic driver that is about to be
accepted for inclusion in the kernel tree which is based upon the lately
ill maintained pcc-acpi. This driver uses the same core code but exposes
backlight and input interfaces allowing it to interface better with hal
and gnome-power-manager.

I'm currently using this driver on Hardy but perhaps some could try it
on intrepid and see whether it's a better candidate for inclusion. Since
it now utilises backlight and input interfaces the panasonic specific
event descriptors and scripts should be removed from acpi-support to
prevent acpi events being processed twice.
