Solution: In System Preferences, Keyboard Shortcuts, under "Display" uncheck both items
Authored by: Alex Quinn on Feb 21, '09 08:50:58PM

Just for the record.... The solution was to go into the Keyboard Shortcuts in the System Preferences and, under Display, uncheck the entries for increasing/decreasing brightness.

I found that in the QuicKeys FAQ. I'm not actually using QuicKeys, but I'm pretty sure it's the same problem. Until you do what I've described here, it seems that nothing else in the system can detect that F14 and F15 have been pressed. There's also some great info on Mac keyboard remapping at Jacob Rus' page on the Cocoa Text System.

I know this is an old post, but I wasted a bunch of time trying to solve this tonight, finding a lot of forum threads like this with the same question, but no satisfactory answer, so I thought I'd go back and fill in the answer for the next person who finds this page.
