On my r60 Fn+F4 works (either suspend-to-RAM or suspend-to-Disk, depending on the settings in gnome-power-manager/kpowersave), Fn+F5 can be used to switch bluetooth on and off, screen brightness and thinklight work, I have no problems with kpowersave so far, after installing the tpb (thinkpad buttons) rpm the volume and mute buttons worked too. So far I have not tried to get the other buttons to work (I just don't need them at the moment).

 

Yes think-wiki is somewhat inconsistent at times.

So, you folks use GNOME... Will try later.... I tried tpb. It did not do any useful job, but was using quite a lot of resources according to top. Perhaps I did not configure it properly. Did you have to change anything in /et/tpbrc? Could you please post yours?

 

By the way, I now have a working script to switch monitors using Fn+F7, which does not require me to restart acpid. It remains to sort out screen brightness and volume buttons.
