Just wondering; did it work before setting dev.acpi_ibm.0.events=1 ?  It
works on my T23 out of the box. I'm yet to use the devd events, yet
notice that Fn-F4 quits working as STR when .events=1 (though
+/-brightness work properly either way) on my old 6.1-R / xorg6.9

If so, maybe excluding those keys from the .eventmask (theoretically
using default handling for those keys) might work?  If not, ah well .. 

cheers, Ian
