Done some snooping on this problem & it seems that the VGN-FS series of laptops don't have the hardware to work with sonypi at all.

The nearest that I've come to finding a fix, is when I found this forum ealier on today.. http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-335267-postdays-0-postorder-asc-start-0.html?sid=36cf14bdb4acb4a90bf3363a9cd572aa

There should be a work around using the info that pijalu & some of the others supplied.
messenjer has a post on page 4 of the forum & supplies the changes needed to make this work with the VAIO VGN-FS315B laptop on Ubuntu Breezy.

It would be great if one of you devs could give it a quick read through & tell us if this will be at all possible to implement into the final Dapper or Dapper +1 (or if a downloadable package could be made from it?).
Thanks for all your hardwork so far.
Regards..
