Public bug reported:

I'm running Intrepid on a Dell Inspiron 1501. While most of the function
keys work fine, the mute key does not. This is quite annoying as I use
it a lot (in lectures for example) and I currently either have to use
the gui to mute it or just drop the volume til it's muted.

When I checked the gnome keyboard shortcuts window, mute is set to 0xa0,
but when I hit the function key it comes up as XF86AudioMute. Changing
the key in the shortcut menu enables the mute function.

The battery status key does not work either, but that could be due to
another bug reported at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acpi/+bug/270017 .

The key to open the cd/dvd tray also does not work, but shows up
correctly in the shortcuts menu.
