I have the same laptop and partially the same problem. I have this nice
buttons on the side, which are meant to steer media player. They used to
work up to the point at which I installed a nice applit called
KPowersave. With it also hal was installed. Since then I cannot use
those buttons any more. I see that they are working, when I press each
one of the four buttons I get:
% acpi_listen
hotkey ATKD 00000041 00000001
hotkey ATKD 00000045 00000001
hotkey ATKD 00000043 00000000
hotkey ATKD 00000040 00000000
but if I follow the usual way of configuring the buttons described on
http://www.asusforum.encke.net/modules/dokuwiki/hotkeys_unter_linux_konfigurieren
(sorry in german, but basically copying the two scripts from the page:
/etc/acpi/hotkey and /etc/acpi/hotkey.sh) basically does not work any more.
Cheers,
Ivan
P.S.: Uninstalling the KPowersave program is not an option for me, since
it is a very convenient tool supplying one-click suspend-to-disk and
suspend-to-ram option for me
