sidgalt, what kind of keyboard do you have? can you please attach the output of `lsusb` to this ticket?

The brightness keys send the correct key codes, but being detected by HAL requires the patch in bug #163725. Having HAL do something when these keys are detected depends on bug #162560.

Attached is an updated patch that adds IDs for several keyboards. Included are the ANSI, ISO, and JIS variants of the macbook3,1 keyboard, and both the wired and wireless Apple Aluminum keyboards ("2007" variant according to apple's kext). It also adds a fix needed for ISO keyboards as two keycodes were reversed. The code for handling this already existed for powerbook iso keyboards.
