Thanks for the data Mario, seems like it's not the backend then but that there is a bug in the key handling. Unsure we can describe it as "regression" though, the feature was not working at all, now it's half working. Or was it something that is currently working on cosmic and which isn't now?
The log doesn't have informations on gnome-settings-daemon though which would be useful to have (but unsure what's the easiest way to put in debug mode, maybe restart it manually with --debug?) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xkeyboard-config in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1740894 Title: KEY_RFKILL is not passed to userspace Status in libxkbcommon package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in xkeyboard-config package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in xorgproto package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in xkeyboard-config source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Status in xkeyboard-config source package in Cosmic: Fix Committed Bug description: * Impact the airplane mode key doesn't work in GNOME * Test case Use a laptop with a key to activate airplane mode, it should toggle the corresponding mode on/off when used * Regression potential The change adds a new key definition but doesn't touch any existing one, nothing specific to test out of the new key working --------------------- There are a couple things going on, that could be fixed by a Debian or Ubuntu maintainer: - libxkbdcommon needs to be updated from 0.7.1 to 0.7.2.
