I have tested the beta package this weekend. My setup is an eeepc 900,
running lenny with kernel 2.6.29-1-686. My eeepc-acpi-scripts had been
hand-tweaked to work with 2.6.28-1-686, where wifi, brightness and
volume keys were operational.

I have made the following changes to my system:
 * lenny's acpid does not listen to netlink events, so no keys but
wifi worked with 2.6.29. I had to upgrade acpid to sid's version and
add -n to its options. Maybe a hint on acpid version on the deb would
be nice;
 * removed picehp from /etc/modules along with its force option
 * updated-initramfs
 * changed kmix default volume to Front

With these changes, wifi, brightness and volume keys are working fine.

Thanks for the great work!
