Brightness keys

I've realized (cuz I've removed Windows such as 10 seconds after buying the PC) that the brightness key are not smooth (fluid animation) even in Windows. So I've simply mapped them inside SysPrefs/Keyboard/Shortcuts

Gestures

Thanks to VoodooI2C team I've successfully activated native gestures on my hack. Everything is working except 4-fingers gestures, but who cares -_-
