Instead of blacklisting the video module, I found a new workaround:

This again gives me 10 levels of brightness on my laptop instead of just 5.
I wonder if the video module can special-case some hardware

That is most helpful. Thanks for following up on this bug. I'll discuss this

I've installed Jaunty and I want to report the brightness behaviour

I won't drive the kernel side bug triage, as I don't know much about
the kernel side of key event handling, I'm afraid.

So for now I'll commit the updated key symbols to hal-info. I'm afraid
you need to leave your "blacklist video" approach on your sytem for now.

Thanks for your investigations. Then it seems this needs to be fixed at
the kernel level, there's no workaround in hal-info (except the wrong
one with totally disabling the brightness keys). I open a kernel task
for this.
Indeed it seems since both acer_wmi and the general acpi laptop panel
exist

In both cases I get 5 brightness
Ah, that explains it. Indeed in lshal-1.txt the brightness_in_hardware
property is set to false on one device, and on the other it's not
existing.
With the fdi files that got you the original hal.txt in comment 3, was
brightness working correctly there?
If you replace your /usr/share/hal/fdi/info
I didn't see any difference with
sudo mv /etc/acpi/events /etc/acpi/events.disabled
A workaround for the brightness problem is to blacklist the video module. I
don't know if this is a good thing to do or not; but I've been using my laptop
like this for a lot of months now without a problem.

Thanks for the update; I'll commit this once we sorted out the
brightness issue.
Hm, it seems that your hal already seems to know that it should control
the brightness in hardware, from your lshal:
laptop_panel.brightness_in_hardware = true (bool)
so changing 10-laptop-panel-hardware.fdi wo

Ok, so with attached 30-keymap-acer.fdi all your keys should work now.
Please test and verify.
With this, you should still get the "double brightness switch" keys. The
keys shouldn't be set to "reserved", since pressing them should still
