Speaking of audio keys.. The volume up/down/mute produce an acpi event 
on my Dell..  Which doesn't currently seem to be handled..  I've been 
meaning to take a look around for existing code.. If someone wants to 
point me at any documentation on howto trap/debug acpi events in 
OpenSolaris (os2008*) it would be most appreciated..


Thanks
