Hi everybody,

I would like to use the ThinkVantage key.
ThinkWiki says the action triggered by the key can be configured by gnome System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts.
But this does not work for me.

xev doesn't see a key press when I press the ThinkVantage button.

I tried

xxx:/sys/devices/platform/thinkpad_acpi# cat hotkey_all_mask
0x03ffffff
xxx:/sys/devices/platform/thinkpad_acpi# echo 0x03ffffff > hotkey_mask
xxx:/sys/devices/platform/thinkpad_acpi# cat hotkey_mask
0x03ffffff

But still no key press will be seen by xev.

Any suggestions to make the key work?

Thank you

Pezhman
