Public bug reported:

I have a Thinkpad X61s and the special keys, like Fn+F2 for locking the
screen or Fn+End for decreasing the brightness of the screen, used to
work until I  upgraded to intrepid (by accident).

Actually nothing visible happens, but It seems to recognize the keys
correctly as xev shows:

KeyPress event, serial 117, synthetic NO, window 0x3600001,
    root 0x6d, subw 0x0, time 895905, (149,265), root:(159,330),
    state 0x0, keycode 160 (keysym 0x1008ff2d, XF86ScreenSaver), same_screen 
YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
    XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
    XFilterEvent returns: False

KeyRelease event, serial 119, synthetic NO, window 0x3600001,
    root 0x6d, subw 0x0, time 895909, (149,265), root:(159,330),
    state 0x0, keycode 160 (keysym 0x1008ff2d, XF86ScreenSaver), same_screen 
YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
    XFilterEvent returns: False

KeyPress event, serial 119, synthetic NO, window 0x3600001,
    root 0x6d, subw 0x0, time 897143, (119,190), root:(129,255),
    state 0x0, keycode 9 (keysym 0xff1b, Escape), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (1b) ""
    XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (1b) ""
    XFilterEvent returns: False


Fair enough: Increasing brightness with Fn+Home works. Also I hit this "Up-Key 
opens gnome-screenshot" issue every now and then, e.g. not every time I boot 
up, just 50% of the time.
