Doesn't work right because the scancodes reported the sony-laptop driver are not the right ones.
(sony-laptop sends its "event" code as the scancode, but to change the keymap you have to use the index in the sony_laptop_input_keycode_map table. I have posted one patch for this which makes the scancodes at least consistent but I think I'll do another that makes them be the same as what current udev thinks they should be. I'll have that ready this evening I thing - have to work now :-( )
