Public bug reported:
On Intrepid Ibex, the brightness hotkeys on my Thinkpad T61 (Fn-Home/Fn-
End) stop working after I enable Numlock (Fn-ScrLk).
It seems enabling Numlock creates an entry in
~/.gconf/desktop/gnome/peripherals/host-{hostname}/0/%gconf.xml (to save
the Numlock state I guess). Once this entry exists, Brightness will no
longer work (even after reboot). If I delete the file in .gconf and
remove the ~/.gconfd/saved_state file, then everything is working again
after login.
I tested this in Hardy, and it does not create the problem (but does
create the same file in .gconf after enabling Numlock)
I'm running a daily update of Intrepid, with all latest packages.
