Problem with Fn-F5 Display toggle Fn-F6 Screen blank - Etch - Kernel 2.6.18

Hi all,

I have an ACER Travelmate 345T, upgraded to Etch from Sarge.
Kernel 2.6.18-486.
Problem is Fn-F5 Display toggle and Fn-F6 Screen blank do
not work any longer. Both X and console.
They used to work fine with Sarge, both X and console.
I tried to tweak BIOS settings, ACPI, APM, xset... nothing.

Funny thing is the keys work well during boot, BEFORE the kernel
loads, up to the GRUB interface.
As soon as the kernel starts loading they stop working.

Thank you all for even the smallest hint.
