j.p.hillier, as per http://support.asus.com/download.aspx?SLanguage=en&m=P5G41T-M+LX2%2fGB&os=29 an update is available for your BIOS (0503). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate , does it change anything? If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Thank you for your understanding. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1101657 Title: Microsoft 7000 My Favourite Keys 1-5 not working, only working on 4000 (of which I have both) Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: (kernel-bug-exists-upstream - :~$ uname -r 3.8.0-030800rc4-generic - updated with new info due to request by another user) I get this when running sudo /lib/udev/findkeyboards : USB keyboard: input/event2 USB keyboard: input/event3 USB keyboard: input/js0 USB keyboard: input/mouse0 using: sudo /lib/udev/keymap -i input/event3 the zoom + and - show up as in another bug as posted here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udev/+bug/356075 scan code: 0xC022D key code: zoomin scan code: 0xC022E key code: zoomout but the only other keys that do not show up are extra media programmable buttons 1 2 3 4 5 of which on a previous Microsoft 4000 which is the same keyboard but wired USB work fine under: keyboard>shortcuts>navigation> switch to work space 1 = Launch5 switch to work space 2 = Launch6 switch to work space 3 = Launch7 switch to work space 4 = Launch8 switch to work space 5 = Launch9 I have 5 desk top spaces in compiz cubed, so that in the previous Microsoft 4000 keyboard pressing 1 2 3 4 5 would actually just go directly spinning to that desk top, which was obviously very useful. None the less the buttons do not work on the new Wireless 7000 version and doesn't even register with sudo /lib/udev/keymap -i input/event4 (different from the original question post, I have a different mouse plugged in at present) Here are the results comparing the 2 keyboards first off the 4000 and 2nd the 7000: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1101657/+attachment/3919556/+files/log As you can see in the 7000 wireless version there is an extra F13 as 183 does not exist in the 4000 wired edition. --- ApportVersion: 2.12.5-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC0: jp 2313 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC1: jp 2313 F.... pulseaudio DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-02-17 (284 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-Studio 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Release amd64 (20121017.1) IwConfig: eth0 no wireless extensions. lo no wireless extensions.
