We already have one: acpi_ibm(4). Setting
dev.acpi_ibm.0.events=3D1
enables these ACPI events (disabled by default, because it changes the=20
default behaviour of some keys, see manpage) which can be processed by=20
devd.
On my T41p Fn+F3 doesn't work as advertised as well (without setting the=20
sysctl. Setting the sysctl correctly throws an event). Unfortunately I=20
didn't have time to look into this, yet :(
The problem that Fn+F7 only works on the console might be a driver bug (at=
=20
least on radeon driven Thinkpads:=20
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D2000).
