xfpm uses X keys, not hal ones, so that may very well be the problem,
especially since it only detect BUTTON_SLEEP. BUTTON_HIBERNATE is not
detected for me (on the current version, should be fixed upstream) but
BUTTON_SUSPEND and BUTTON_SLEEP are.

Do you use thinkpad-acpi?

Could you use lsinput to find out which input event is the “ThinkPad
Extra Buttons” one (here it's the 3) and run:

sudo input-events 3 (or your number)

Press Fn+F4 and Fn+F12 and tell me what is reported by that.

Which kernel version do you use, btw?

Cheers,
