[ I'm not sure how audio keys are supposed to work, so maybe this is not the
right place to report it, but here it goes. ]
When I hit the Fn-F7, Fn-F8, Fn-F9 keys (resp. volume-down, volume-up, mute)
on my MSI Wind, nothing seems to happen. I don't get any setkeycodes
errors in dmesg, and instead get unmapped keycoeds in X: xev tells me
the three keys generate the X keycodes 174, 176, and 160 (respectively).
Following some hints found at
http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/quirk/quirk-keymap-try.html,
I tried to add a file /etc/hal/fdi/information/foo.fdi:
?xml version=1.0 encoding=ISO-8859-1? !-- -*- SGML -*- --
deviceinfo version=0.2
device
!-- These are raw scancodes produced by the atkbd driver --
match key=@input.originating_device:info.linux.driver string=atkbd
match
key=/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer:system.hardware.vendor
prefix=MICRO-STAR
match
key=/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer:system.hardware.product
contains_outof=U-100
append key=input.keymap.data type=strlist00a0:mute/append
append key=input.keymap.data
type=strlist00ae:volumedown/append
append key=input.keymap.data
type=strlist00b0:volumeup/append
append key=info.capabilities
type=strlistinput.keymap/append
/match
/match
/match
/device
/deviceinfo
but it didn't seem to make any difference (tho it does appear in lshal, so
the match statements seem to work right).
I'd love to dig deeper, but as mentioned earlier I have no idea how such
keys are *supposed* to work, so I'd be happy to be directed to some
info explaining how such keys are supposed to be configured.
Hi Stefan,
first of all, hal no longer does any keymap remapping (it's done by udev
nowadays), so this bug no longer belongs to hal-info.
Second, if you already get X keycodes, then it is no hal/udev issue either
afaik.
Not entirely sure, which package to correctly reassign, so I'm using the general
xorg package. Hopefully a more knowledgeable X maintainer can help you and if
necessary reassign to a more correct package.
Cheers,
Michael
