[Bug 1397739] Re: [HP Compaq nx6310] Function buttons for brightness stopped working
Shouldn't it rather go to platform-driver-x86 given the hp-wmi driver seems to be the culprit as the bisection has shown? As the instructions advise I would CC the maintainer and the committer (since it is a regression) as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1397739 Title: [HP Compaq nx6310] Function buttons for brightness stopped working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1397739/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1397739] Re: [HP Compaq nx6310] Function buttons for brightness stopped working
During the bisection I came across something that may be interesting with regard to the issue. While a freshly booted kernel with the issue has the functionality non-working, after going into standby and waking up it works as it did before. I verified that also with the 3.18 release kernel. This information may later be helpful when it comes to actually fixing the issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1397739 Title: [HP Compaq nx6310] Function buttons for brightness stopped working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1397739/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The offending commit is http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=f82bdd0d77b6bf0dea08a1d957ab45d503f328b1 Since the BIOS of the laptop is from 2008 (but still the latest), it is obvious that after that change it won't work anymore. It would be interesting to know why upstream wanted to exclude pre-2009. ** Tags removed: needs-bisect ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1397739 Title: [HP Compaq nx6310] Function buttons for brightness stopped working To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1397739/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1397739] Re: Function buttons for brightness etc stopped to work
I ran a test with kernel 3.18-rc7-vivid where the problem persists. I ran another test with 3.15.10-utopic where the functionality is as it was in the 3.13 release. So I assume the issue was introduced in the 3.16 series. ** Tags added: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists- upstream-3.18-rc7 ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1397739 Title: Function buttons for brightness etc stopped to work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1397739/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1397739] [NEW] Function buttons for brightness etc stopped to work
Public bug reported: In 14.04 using kernel 3.13 the special function buttons of this HP Compaq nx6310 laptop used to work correctly. I could increase or decrease brightness, invoke the battery settings (mostly useless but it worked), switch to an external display or enter sleep mode. The key functions are invoked using Fn + the key with the designated function as listed below. Fn + F3 - Sleep - button/sleep SBTN 0080 K Fn + F4 - Switch to external display - video/switchmode VMOD 0080 Fn + F8 - Battery information - button/battery BAT 0080 K Fn + F9 - Brightness down - video/brightnessdown BRTDN 0087 Fn + F10 - Brightness up - video/brightnessup BRTUP 0086 I went through the troubleshooting steps described at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting. In 14.10 none of these buttons work. Using acpi_listen I found that no events are fired in 14.10, but under 14.04 these buttons do indeed fire ACPI events and thus work correctly. The ACPI events listed above are fired in 14.04 using kernel 3.13 but are not fired under 14.10 using kernel 3.16. Using xbacklight I can still change the brightness in 14.10, if that information is of any help.
