Does anyone know of a workaround I could use to bind the brightness keys<br>

Put xbacklight in a script and bind to the script instead?<br>

That causes exactly the same glitch. The script works fine when called manually, but as an Openbox keybinding it goes nuts. The script I was using uses bc to work out the integer value of the brightness, from 0 to 7, and then converts that back into the percentage that xbacklight understands.<div>
