Hello.
Thanks for the testing.
The Fn+foo keys will be enabled in a future release for ectype 13.
Concerning the files in /proc/omnibook/, they work by reading and writing.
That is to read the lcd backlight level do "cat /proc/omnibook/lcd"
and to change it do "echo 0 > /proc/omnibook/lcd" that will switch the level
to 0 that is minimal luminosity.
You might want to try other files in the /proc/omnibook directory.

One final note: You HAVE to load the module forcing ectype 13 if you
don't then trying to change lcd value is known to fail on A105.
