Title:
  Add support for ACPI event handler for Sony Vaio with SNC controller

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: acpi-support

  In /etc/acpi/events/sony-* are events for Sony Vaios and their
  handlers. They dont work for all models and some models would require
  different scripts. But there are many models with Sony Notebook
  Controller device, which does report events as:

  sony/hotkey SNC 00000001 00000010

  To support both SPIC events and SNC, replace in all sony scripts
  events work SPIC to (SPIC|SNC).

  So event would look like this:
  # /etc/acpi/events/sony-brightness-down

  event=sony/hotkey (SPIC|SNC) 00000001 00000010
  action=/etc/acpi/xbacklight.sh down

  This would get working backlight control for some of nvidia base
  vaios.
