Title:
  Brightness control key types "±" character

Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On my laptop, when I use the brightness up fn key, in addition to increasing the brightness, it also types the character "±" into whatever application has focus.   This is happening on Karmic.  I am not certain which packages are involved.
