Hotkeys not working under KDE4

Gents,

I noticed that after the move to KDE4 the hotkeys for suspend and hibernate
(Fn-F4 and Fn-F12) are not working anymore.

The keys themself are recognized:

axel@z60m:~> lshal -m
Start monitoring devicelist:
-------------------------------------------------
12:47:38.495: computer_logicaldev_input_3 condition ButtonPressed =
hibernate
12:47:43.766: computer_logicaldev_input_3 condition ButtonPressed = sleep

respectively xev:
S2Disk:
KeyRelease event, serial 34, synthetic NO, window 0x5200001,
    root 0x6d, subw 0x0, time 678796, (854,917), root:(858,942),
    state 0x0, keycode 165 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:                                  
    XFilterEvent returns: False                                    

S2Ram:
KeyPress event, serial 34, synthetic NO, window 0x5200001,
    root 0x6d, subw 0x0, time 682263, (854,917), root:(858,942),
    state 0x0, keycode 223 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:                                  
    XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:                                
    XFilterEvent returns: False          

Is there any solution around for this?

Cheers,
Ax

Yes, I noticed that too. There is a confirmed bugreport at launchpad
regarding the problem:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/kdebase/+bug/281284

The script "softkeys.py" attached to post #22 there does wonders! Just
put it in ~/.kde/Autostart/, make it executable and everythong works!

Best regards,
Armin

Armin,
thanks for the hint, seems to have problems under openSUSE:

axel@z60m:~> ./softkeys.py
X protocol error:
<class 'Xlib.error.BadAccess'>: code = 10, resource_id = 109,
sequence_number = 10, major_opcode = 33, minor_opcode = 0
