[Bug 609234] Re: Multimedia and battery keys do not work on Dell Studio 1557

[Mark Smith]

Bug still exists in daily maverick build.  Should be a super easy fix,
but I'm not familiar enough with the Ubuntu kernel build process.  When
I patched this on Gentoo, worked like a charm.  Affects Battery key
(Fn-F3), keyboard brightness key for back-light keyboard (Fn-F6, still
functions to change keyboard brightness), and Eject key (No F key,
located to the right of F12).

The patch basically determines if the key buffer entry at [1] is empty,
and if it is, uses buffer_entry[2].  If someone can throw together a
kernel package for me, I can test ASAP.
