[gpm] some question about hotkeys on an IBM Thinkpad T42

[Paul Ionescu <i_p_a_u_l yahoo com>]

Hi,

I have a Thinkpad T42 with Fedora 9 up to date that has hardware volume 
keys (sound up/down and mute).
In Fedora 8, I had visual feedback (OSD) when I pressed the volume keys, 
but not any more for Fedora 9.

I had a look in /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/30-keymap-
module-thinkpad-acpi.fdi and there are no mappings for the sound keys.
I know for sure that the keys were working in Fedora 8.
Is there any reason that the keys are not mapped anymore in Fedora 9 ?

If I manually add the keys in the .fdi file, the OSD work again, but it 
should work by default.

Did I missed something ?
Is there a reason that the mappings for the hardware sound buttons were 
removed from the .fdi file ?

Oh, and another thing is that the hardware "mute" button on this thinkpad 
is not toggle, but only mute, so how can we properly configure this as a 
mute only ?

Thank you,
Paul
