Upgrading to the latest kernel 2.6.22-11 didn't change anything. I've tried the 
debugging instructions 
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/HotkeyResearch) to get any hotkey 
informations or key codes out of my Sony Vaio - but I failed with all three 
different BIOS key settings (type1, type2, and type3) as awen did in bug 
125881. I can give the following information, but they won't help any further, 
I fear ...
-----------------------------------------------------
Laptop identification:
Sony Corporation
VGN-FS195VP
C2002JR
 --------------------------------------------------------
What the keys should do:
Fn+F2: Mute (looks like: crossed out speaker)
Fn+F3: Volume down (looks like: triangle -)
Fn+F4: Volume up (loks like: triangle +)
Fn+F5: Brightness down (looks like: sun -)
Fn+F6: Brightness up (looks like: sun +)
------------------------------------------------------------
"tailing -f" the acpid.log remains silent, but "tailing -f" syslog gives at 
least the following messages, when pressing any of the above mentioned Fn key 
combinations:

Sep 11 15:43:24 ubuntu-vaio kernel: [26405.572000] atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed 
(translated set 2, code 0xf7 on isa0060/serio0).
