This bug was fixed in the package udev - 175-0ubuntu7

---------------
udev (175-0ubuntu7) precise; urgency=low

  * builtin-block-polling.patch: Fix default attribute comparison for CD
    drives, the default value of events_poll_msecs is -1, not 0. This really
    makes in-kernel polling work for those.
  * builtin-block-polling.patch: Apply to all drives with removable media, not
    just CD drives. (LP: #948663)
  * 00git-keymaps.patch: Update to the latest keymaps from upstream:
    - Dell XPS (LP: #910911)
    - HP Presario CQ60 (LP: #935804)
  * debian/rules: Drop prep and tarball targets. We want to use the upstream
    released tarballs.
  * debian/rules: Use dh_autoreconf. Add build dependency.

  I have a Dell XPS M1330. On this computer, the Fn+right arrow key
  combination should change the keyboard backlight. Pressing the key
  combination, however, leads to complete loss of keyboard input to any
  program. Keyboard input can only be restored by rebooting my computer.
