On my toshiba Satellite A10 S100 the lock button (Fn+F2) doesn't works
(It worked on gutsy, not anymore in hardy)

I can see in the logs that "/etc/acpi/lockbtn.sh" has ran, so all the
toshiba_acpi stuff is working.

In  gnome-keybinding-properties when I try to change the default CRTL-
Alt-L to the lockbtn, it does nothing.

If I run "acpi_fakekey 128" (remotelly don't touching the local keyboard) I get 
an "0xe8" choice in gnome-keybinding-properties. With acpi_fakeykey 156 I get 
an "0xe6" choice in the gnome-keybinding-properties window.
I really don't understand the correlation between the fakekey code and que 
gnome-keybinding-properties hex code.

Anyway... When I type "acpi_fakekey 152" (the $KEY_COFFEE) in the remote
shell: gnome-keybinding-properties does nothing.

Also if I cat /dev/input/by-path/platform-i8042-serio-0-event-kbd I can
see "things" anytime I press any key and when I do remotelly
acpi_fakekey 128 (or 1, 2, 3.., 60, etc).

Trying with many other fakekey numbers also works but with 152 does
nothing.

The Quick and dirty solution will be change the acpi script to send
CTRL-Alt-L when lockbtn is pressed instead the 152 in acpi_fakekey. But
I don't know what to send in acpi_fakekey to get CTRL-Alt-L.
