Hello

 None of hotkeys of the sony vaio VGN-BX296XP seem to work apart from the mute button (which seems to be hw implemented).
 I contacted the developer of the sony_laptop module and he replied that my laptop seems to be using the GHKE method.
 The dmesg output shows:

Use 'setkeycodes e075 <keycode>' to make it known.
[Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0xf5 on isa0060/serio0).

 I could find lots of people complaining of similar problems but solutions are sparse,quite cryptical and varie alot from model to model.No info for this model could be found.
 Is there a simple way to solve this?
