[Bug 293213] Re: k-d-s applies incorrect xmodmap that breaks macbook brightness keys

[unggnu]

I can confirm this. When trying to assign the brightness keys to a
keyboard shortcut the message: "The key you just pressed isn't supported
by Qt" is displayed.

Since in Jaunty the /etc/acpi/sonybright.sh is removed so I can't change
the backlight of my laptop with Kubuntu but in Ubuntu because later one
supports my keys out of the box in guidance-power-manager. Changing the
brightness in the KDE power plasmoid works fine so it is only a key
problem.

xev definitely shows my keys as supported:
KeyRelease event, serial 35, synthetic NO, window 0x3000001,
    root 0xab, subw 0x0, time 999639, (-629,210), root:(458,235),
    state 0x0, keycode 232 (keysym 0x1008ff03, XF86MonBrightnessDown),
same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False

KeyPress event, serial 35, synthetic NO, window 0x3000001,
    root 0xab, subw 0x0, time 1000020, (-629,210), root:(458,235),
    state 0x0, keycode 233 (keysym 0x1008ff02, XF86MonBrightnessUp),
same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False

** Summary changed:
