Don't work for my, seems that it is a recursively tar file: 
http://testing.pyen.com/~ajani/nvidia8-fnkeys.tar.bz2
Can you redo it again?

* replaced 'sony' with nvidia8, to make it more obvious that it's not sony 
specific
* changed the access method name to nvidia8 because it now supports non-sony 
models
I propose this in a comment on this thread, but I don't know how to solve it, 
very good work :D

* moved the check for the nvidia8 laptop panel access method to the top of the 
hal get and set scripts so that the check fot /sys/class/backlight doesn't have 
to be commented out. This should make it easier to incorporate these changes 
into the hal packages.
I don't understand well what it do.

* install script:
  - changed script to use dpkg-divert to make backups of replaced files so that 
upgrades of the packages for those files won't break the setup
  - removed 'make install' step, since it isn't needed
  - changed chmods on scripts to be 755, so that other and group get executable 
bit
  - change chmod on the fdi to be 644, since it doesn't need to be executable
Little important changes, i've a big error with this that don't show the 
progressbar, that I see that it is problem with permitions :D

  - added a 'sudo' in front of every command that needs root priviledges so 
that I can run the script as my normal user
Is it based on my script? I can't try your.
  - All of the files except nvclock source are included in the tarball, so it 
doesn't download anything except nvclock
I put separate files from my initial script for have the possibility for update 
any separate file without change the result of initial script.
* Added an uninstall script
Interesting for undo any changes without good results :D


Only with all I read that you do, I think that you do a big important change 
from try to solve this bug, the second most important from nvclock support 
correctly 8series.
I think that it only need better recognition on .fdi, only compare the series 
from nvidia graphic card, it's the important think, not the model of laptop 
that we now that are using it.
