    Hi.

    I tried it:, hitting fn+f5 gives the following:

root@apcnb98:/etc/acpi# acpi_listen
^[[15~

Hitting some keys produce a message similar to the one you say, bus most
keys produce no output or one similar to the above. Some have an effect
though, such as putting the laptop in sleep mode, which I understand.
The association with the character sequence produced by the key and the
button name must be configured somewhere.
