Hi,

pbbuttonsd is a small daemon which controls what happens when you press the 
special function keys, i.e. the brightness keys. In the newest version, which 
is not part of debian but will be soon, it can also control the time when the 
harddisc spins down and many things more. Additional information can be found 
at the homepage:
