here is some code I wrote (I own a CF-51)
first try this:
# modprobe panasonic_laptop
save the below as: /etc/acpi/events/hotkey
event=HKEY\ 0080\ 00(8[1-689]|0[37a])

[Bug 222324] Re: Support for panasonic hotkeys missing
FYI, Andy's test kernels work for me (Panasonic Toughbook CF-19), but I have this other problem where at times the screen just starts getting dimmer and dimmer, and the bright/dim keys (or direct writes to /sys/class/backlight/panasonic/... files), but then suddenly after a minute or so it will suddenly start working again and recognize that the backlight is dim or off and allow me to turn it back up. I didn't see this under hardy at all (where I used pcc_acpi), it showed up when I moved to intrepid, even before moving to these test kernels (when I couldn't adjust brightness at all -- it would just get dimmer and brighter on its own, very frustrating). At least now I can fix it some of the time. There are also issues where the UI (GNOME) doesn't seem to recognize the full range of the backlight, which goes from 0 to 21; using the bright/dim keys, I can only get it up to 9 or so. Writing directly to the files I can up it to the full 21 (in its full outdoor-readable battery-draining glory). -- Support for panasonic hotkeys missing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222324 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for the efforts, Andy. A backport from Intrepid would be very nice, indeed. I tried the proposed kernel images on my Panasonic Y5. It seems to fail, X can't start. I didn't try the hotkeys from console mode. Previously, everything was working with gutsy kernel + pcc-acpi-0.9 + SUSE patches + make/install/modprobe. Currrently, with the default Intrepid kernel, sound and brightness hotkeys don't work, but brightness is automatically adjusted (moved down/up) whether I am on battery or plugged.

[Bug 222324] Re: Support for panasonic hotkeys missing
I have had a look at the module and it appears to be pretty small and self contained and therefore it may be possible to be possible to back port it to Intrepid. If it is possible then we would need to get some test kernels built and those tested by those of you with the hardware to confirm that (1) it fixes the problem, and (2) there are no obvious regressions. I have pulled the driver as it appears in mainline and applied it to the intrepid kernel. It seems to apply and build cleanly. I have built some test kernels with this modules enabled (based on the current -proposed kernel) and pushed them up to the URL below. If those of you with Panasonic laptops could test these kernels and report back, we can then consider whether this can be applied as an SRU to Intrepid.

[Bug 222324] Re: Support for panasonic hotkeys missing in Hardy
Moving this bug forward to target the actively developed linux kernel package. Beginning with the Intrepid development cycle the linux- ubuntu-modules was merged with the linux kernel package. I don't see the panasonic driver to be in the Intrepid kernel source so it's likely this will be resolved for Jaunty.

Great news, James, thanks! Did you apply the patch to Hardy's kernel source to build? I'm not used to working with kernel tree patches since I stopped building my own kernels many years ago. Should I just install linux-source, patch, build the module, copy into place, depmod -a ? -- Support for panasonic hotkeys missing in Hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222324 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 222324] Re: Support for panasonic hotkeys missing in Hardy
There is currently a updated panasonic driver that is about to be accepted for inclusion in the kernel tree which is based upon the lately ill maintained pcc-acpi. This driver uses the same core code but exposes backlight and input interfaces allowing it to interface better with hal and gnome-power-manager. http://marc.info/?l=linux-acpim=14264520623w=2 I'm currently using this driver on Hardy but perhaps some could try it on intrepid and see whether it's a better candidate for inclusion. Since it now utilises backlight and input interfaces the panasonic specific event descriptors and scripts should be removed from acpi-support to prevent acpi events being processed twice. -- Support for panasonic hotkeys missing in Hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222324 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I guess opensuse has had a patch since July to support 2.6.26 and 27: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/seife:/Factory/openSUSE_11.0/repodata/repoview/pcc-acpi-0-0.9-5.1.html I'm testing the patches with 0.9 tarball and kernel 2.6.27 in Intrepid currently, will report results.

[Bug 222324] Re: Support for panasonic hotkeys missing in Hardy
captive: I think we should use the original patches from the suse src.rpm. I found 3 patches in the opensuse 11.1 src.rpm. I can confirm that they applied without error and allow the module to build and load, and that all module functionality seems to be working properly (brightness, volume, suspend). They do not allow building with kernel 2.6.26 in Intrepid, but are a step in the right direction. What options do we have for getting this in a .deb for Hardy? Certainly not main, backports doesn't seem appropriate. Maybe the original author just needs to get these patches upstream. I sent him a message a few days ago, but haven't gotten a reply yet. -- Support for panasonic hotkeys missing in Hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222324 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 222324] Re: Support for panasonic hotkeys missing in Hardy
googling around I found this page:
http://rclermont.blogspot.com/2007/10/panasonic-fn-keys-in-ubuntu.html
In the comments someone says that is possible to patch the module to
make it work with 2.6.24 kernels.
I've been able to build a working pcc_acpi.ko from the source for my CF-74 and
gutsy w/2.6.24 kernel (this should work for hardy 8.04) found here:
http://www.da-cha.jp/files/pcc-acpi-0.9.tar.bz2
and applying the following patch. The patch is the sum of two patches
from the source rpm used in opensuse 10.3 basically the make things
compatible with the 2.6.23 kernel. (it also works with .24 kernels)

It seems that support for pcc_acpi has been dropped since kernel 2.6.23 due to acpi changes. A patch version of pcc_acpi needs to be built from latest sources and shipped with linux-ubuntu-modules.

Confirming--hotkeys on a Panasonic CF-50 are inoperative, screen brightness cannot be changed, and cat /proc/acpi/video/VGA0/LCD/brightness yields not supported.
