I've just purchased an Acer Extensa 5630EZ and I'm trying to sort out
minor probs with the multimedia and special keys.

On my laptop when I turned the bluetooth switch from on-to-off the
screen brightness would also increase. Also when I pressed the lock
screen button the brightness would increase and the screen would not
lock.

Solved both of this problems by modifying the file
"/usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/30-keymap-acer.fdi"

I added the following to the prefix="Extensa" subsection of the "Acer"
section:

<!-- Extensa 5630EZ -->
          <match 
key="/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer:system.hardware.product" 
contains_outof="5630">
            <remove key="input.keymap.data" 
type="strlist">e06e:brightnessup</remove> <!--  Brightness Up conflicts with 
Windows Lock Function -->
            <append key="input.keymap.data" 
type="strlist">e06e:screenlock</append> <!--  Windows Lock function -->
            <remove key="input.keymap.data" 
type="strlist">e059:brightnessup</remove> <!-- Brightness Up conflicts with 
Bluetooth on-to-off -->
           </match>

You could try something similar for the identifiers of your particular
laptop. Hope this helps.

Rgds, Martin
