Known issue, resolved in jaunty.

The problem is that X won't share the thinkpad hotkey "input device" with
hal in the intrepid version, so X is told not to use it at all, and that
prevents X from seeing this particular key event - which is the only one
that should be handled through X directly instead of through the hal layer.

I don't think we'll be able to provide a good fix for that in intrepid.
