use this software:
http://ibm-acpi.sourceforge.net/

your model will work fine ;-)

download the whole mailinglist as raw mbox format here:
http://mailman.linux-thinkpad.org/pipermail/linux-thinkpad.mbox/linux-think=
pad.mbox

import it into your email program and make a search in it. you will find
a lot about the fn buttons on thinkpads.
