How to configure laptop hotkey in Ubuntu

Today I have a little trouble. All hotkeys of my T43 didn't response my finger by displaying on-screen display. Instead, it was just nothing happen. After investigated 2 hours, I found a solution. It is hotkey-setup.

hotkey-setup should be installed and run during boot to automatically configure laptop hotkeys. However, I accidentally purged it this morning with tpb. If you can't see OSD, try to install it again.

sudo apt-get install hotkey-setup
sudo /etc/init.d/hotkey-setup restart
