    Hey guys,
    I'm trying to figure out a way to remap the f5 and f6 keys so that instead of having to hold the 'fn' button to adjust the brightness settings, i can just press the f5 and f6 key. I've used keytweak to remap the volume control buttons, but i cant find a setting for the brightness. any workaround for this?

    I don't have the solution to your problem, but thanks for the tip on remapping keys. I've learned something new and am very happy about it. :D
