Ben Harris, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available
from the very top line at the top of the page (the release names are
irrelevant for testing, and please do not test the daily folder)
following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow
additional upstream developers to examine the issue.

If the test did not allow you to test to the issue (ex. you couldn't boot into the OS) please make a comment in your report about this, and continue to test the next most recent kernel version until you can test to the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested exactly shown as:
kernel-fixed-upstream-3.18-rc7

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil
icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  Dell Latitude 2110: Brightness keys come through two input devices

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  According to <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting>, "If
  the events are reported by more than one input device then report a
  kernel bug (Ubuntu linux package) because it should only send the
  event on one device."  On my Latitude 2110, the brightness control
  keys (Fn+Up and Fn+Down) seem to appear through two different devices,
  /dev/input/event3 ("AT Translated Set 2 keyboard") and
  /dev/input/event4 ("Video Bus").  The keys also control the screen
  brightness, even in a text console.
