That sounds like a good idea, Christopher.
Regarding Problem #1, I do remember that this was working just fine in 12.10.
Once I stepped up to 13.04, this functionality was lost. But along the way I
might have stepped up the BIOS version, too. I think I remember that I bought

Rainer Rohde, given how each of the problems mentioned in your Bug Description
are driven by different actors:
1) Fn+F2 = Toggle wifi on/off (works manually from the Network Indicator) -
Network Manager, WiFi driver, BIOS, and udev
2) Fn+F5/F6 = Adjust screen brightness (doesn't work at all, not

FYI (not sure if this helps at all) -- When I run acpi_listen, and
press the Fn keys for screen brightness (F5/F6), I get the following:

Another thing I tried out of curiosity -- I downgraded the BIOS to ver
210.
Results: Fn+F2 (toggle wifi) came back to life, however, no other
function returned to operations.
It seemed as if Fn+F5/F6 felt smoother, more fine-grained, however, the

enough -- required going into suspend, and coming out of suspend, before
the screen brightness would work.
Starting with 13.04 and now 13.10, I pretty
