Hey,

I didn't apply the sony patch either, and mute, vol up/down, brightness 
up/down and sleep shortcuts are working.

I do not agree with the power consumption though. As I write this email, 
I have 97% battery and gnome power manager reports 5 hours and 50 
minutes remaining.

@Ilya
Did you install laptop mode tools?
