Laptop backlight function keys don't work...
Hello everybody,

I've recently installed Debian on my Fujitsu Siemens Pi2515. Everything is fine except for the keyboard brightness controls. These keys work in windows so I know it's not a hardware issue. Also, there is nothing in the bios regarding this. I've searched on the internet and other people have had similar problems though I've been unable to find any solution. The other function keys do work, the volume controls however don't. The changed the volume for example I press 'fn + F6' and the volume changes as expected. When I press 'fn + F8' (reduce backlight) there is no effect.

If anybody has any suggestions I'd be very grateful.

Thanks.
