Thanks.
In case anyone is interested, I stuck that ACPI stuff in on my own
laptop and the key does not generate either keyboard *or* ACPI events.
OTOH removing the wireless doesn't disable the module or daemon, and
when I switch it back on network-manager does tickle it back into life
(at least with my 2.6.20.1 kernel), so all is (mostly) good in the
world :-)
Cheers,
Andrew.
