I tried this solution but it didn't fix the issue with my unlock switch :(

In Xterm type:
Code:
lshal -m
then flick the lock slider, you should get an output like this:
Code:
platform_kb_lock property button.state.value = true
platform_kb_lock condition ButtonPressed = cover
platform_kb_lock property button.state.value = false
platform_kb_lock condition ButtonPressed = cover
If you don't you could have a hardware issue.

i had the same issue, and i fixed it by reinstalling the mscim quick switcher for the status bar.
