Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04, 2.6.24-16-generic
Fujitsu Siemens V5505

what the keys should do:

fn+f8: brightness down
fn+f9: brightness up
_______________________________________________________

keycodes:

NO xev output for fn+f8, but it works under windows.
xev output for fn + f9 :

KeyPress event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x4200001,
    root 0x59, subw 0x0, time 2598525, (174,-9), root:(1022,573),
    state 0x0, keycode 239 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
    XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
    XFilterEvent returns: False

KeyRelease event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x4200001,
    root 0x59, subw 0x0, time 2598525, (174,-9), root:(1022,573),
    state 0x0, keycode 239 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
    XFilterEvent returns: False


keycode for fn+f9: 0xef
no keycode for fn+f8!

__________________________________________________________

"sudo tail -f /var/log/acpid" gives me nothing for both.

"xev | grep -A2 --line-buffered '^KeyRelease' | sed -n '/keycode
/s/^.*keycode \([0-9]*\).* (.*, \(.*\)).*$/\1 \2/p'" gives me:

fn+f8: did nothing
fn+f9: 239 NoSymbol
