I've fixed the brightness bug by removing the video module.
I.e. I inserted the following line in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and rebooted my
laptop:

This is a trial-and-error workaround, I don't know if it's a good thing
to remove this module or not, I just know that it fixes

I have just added the blacklist video fix, which I still need even after
today's hal updates.

It looks a bit like that a request for an invalid brightness level is
getting into the process somewhere, and that's corrected afterwards.

Hi Alkis
Thanks for this. Unfortunately, it didn't work for me. I'm not very
good with xmodmap and things. I am using your 30-keymap-acer.fdi file,
that fixed the hotkeys. Attempting to follow your instructions, I made
/etc/rcS.d/S90eurodollar.sh, with the following contents:
#! /bin/sh
echo
Hi Charie,
I didn't put the script to /etc/rcS.d, I just put it to a session script
(menu system preferences sessions - if that's what it's called, I
got Greek menus and I'm not sure).
Anyway, you may also just run them inside a gnome-terminal while you're
logged on, they don't need sudo or
Here's a fix for the € and $ keys:
echo 'keycode 186 = dollar dollar dollar dollar dollar' | xmodmap -
echo 'keycode 185 = EuroSign EuroSign EuroSign EuroSign EuroSign' | xmodmap -
185 and 186 are the keys scrollup and scrolldown in which I've mapped the
Euro and Dollar keys in my previously
Cool, that .fdi worked well for me. If you find a fix for the € and $
keys, I'd love to know, and the brightness glitch is still vexing me!
Thanks for your work on this.

FokkerCharlie, yeah, I did as Percy suggested and all keys works fine
under X.
I'm attaching my /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/30-keymap-acer.fdi
There should be some more match key in there to check specifically for Aspire
5920G, but I didn't have time to look into it.
Remaining
I've created a file named /usr/share/hotkey-setup/acer-aspire-5900.hk (contents
below) and added the following lines to /etc/init.d/hotkey-setup so that it
gets loaded:
Aspire\ 59*)

Percy, thanks a lot!!!
I just replaced all entries in 30-keymap-acer.fdi with the scancodes from my
previous post.
This solved *all* problems in X/gnome/etc, except for the brightness
increasing/decreasing two times instead of one, which is an acpi script bug, I
had found it in Hardy, I'll
hotkey-setup is loaded in Ubuntu, but it doesn't have any effect. I
think it should be completely removed. Changing the appropriate files of
hal-info fixed the problem under X, but on in plain console.
** Changed in: hal-info (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: hotkey-setup = hal-info

So I think that modifying hotkey-setup is not the correct way to solve
this problem. Could someone please give us some suggestions on what else
to look for?
Hi,
I found somewhere (don't ask me where, I think it was somewhere
Confirming the bug remains in final release of II 8.10. I see exactly
this behaviour with my 5920G.
