Description of problem:
I've configured hotkeys via ACPI events. When I press hotkey, my action
script is called after few seconds (lets say 5 or more). Hotkeys are
configured in this way.

[root@echelon etc]# cat acpi/events/hotkey
event=hotkey ATKD .*
action=/etc/acpi/actions/hotkey.sh %e
[root@echelon etc]#

[root@echelon etc]# cat acpi/actions/hotkey.sh
#!/bin/bash

case "$3" in
# Mute button
00000032) /usr/bin/amixer set Master toggle
;;
...

It works perfectly (without delays) on my laptop with the vanilla 2.6.10.
My laptop is Asus M6887Ne. BTW the whole laptop is little bit faster with
the vanilla 2.6.10 ...


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.6.10-1.766

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure hotkeys in the same way
2. Push the hotkey and .....wait.....
3.
  

Actual Results:  I have to wait before my action script is called. It's annoying.

Expected Results:  I don't want to wait, I want immediate action.
