[PATCH] Fujitsu extra buttons not working on S6010, Thinkpad Extra buttons not working on R31

Hi Rafael,

Actually, it was rather supposed to start a discussion because I have 
almost no experience with the ACPI subsystem.

Anyhow, here is the same in a (hopefully) well-formed patch file, tested 
on a Fujitsu S6010 and an IBM R31 running
the 3.17 kernel.

Thanks,
     Thomas
