Hello,

I own a Sony Vaio VGN-AR41E and have gotten the Fn keys
to report ACPI events by adding:

---------- paste ---------
.ident = "Sony Vaio AR Series",
.callback = sony_nc_C_enable,
.driver_data = sony_C_events,
.matches = {
DMI_MATCH(DMI_SYS_VENDOR, "Sony Corporation"),
DMI_MATCH(DMI_PRODUCT_NAME, "VGN-AR"),
------- end paste -----

to the appropriate section in drivers/misc/sony-laptop.c, but that's
about all that works.

I get no controls in /sys/devices/platform/sony-laptop. I do get a few
controls in
/sys/class/backlight/sony, but they don't seem to do anything.
(I get these: actual_brightness bl_power brightness max_brightness).

Any suggestions?
