I think I found the problem, but I don't know where I can fix it.
Follow:
On my DELL latitude 110L, Fn+F3 (battery) doesn't work on 8.10, used to
work on 8.04.
When a simulate the keycode 236, discovered by:
> grep BATTERY /usr/share/acpi-support/key-constants
< KEY_BATTERY=236
using:
> sudo acpi_fakekey 236
nothing happens too.
but if I go to a console (tty: ctrl+alt+f1) and issue the same command
(or press fn+f3), when I go back to X, the battery report is showed.
Maybe X is blocking gnome-battery to catch the command?
xev reports keycode 244 when I press it:
