Well I've done a fresh install of hardy and still the Fn-F10 eject
button does not work on kubuntu on my E1505.

However, it's worse now, because

paul :~$ xev | grep -A2 --line-buffered '^KeyRelease' | sed -n '/keycode
/s/^.*keycode \([0-9]*\).* (.*, \(.*\)).*$/\1 \2/p'

253 NoSymbol

which means the key combo no longer is recognized as XF86Eject.
According to bug 111943, I should be able to use kcontrol to configure
an input to do it, but when I try, it will not take Fn-F10.  So, I
edited .kde/share/config/khotkeysrc manually and entered XF86Eject as
the key.  But, since the kernel doesn't connect Fn-F10 with XF86Eject,
this does no good.  I don't know how to specify this "253 NoSymbol" in
the config .. any ideas appreciated.
