repair of lower curtain bracket

I'm sure I'm not calling it the right name, but on the two tall windows in the hallway of our 3950BR, the brackets at the bottom of the windows that attach to the wall and hold the window dressing, have pulled out. It looks like the dealer already tried to fix it once before we took delivery, as a couple of the brackets have some extra hole in the wall. Anyone have a good fix for getting those brackets to stay put?

In the old rig we used plastic wall anchors.

Are you talking about the self drilling drywall type anchors or something else?

I might try this, but there are already two screw holes so I'm not sure how much holding the power the wall will have at this point with the original holes.
