John, thanks for the info. So it seems in Hardy the Wireless key was mapped to KEY_XFER, while it is unmapped now. We should map it to KEY_WIFI (which is the supposed functionality for a wireless switching key). Please also get me an udev dump and your DMI information, as explained in steps 4 and 5 in /usr/share/doc/udev/README.keymap.txt .

[Bug 250732] Re: Special Keys doesn't work on Fujitsu siemens amilo LI 1718
The problem with the Atheros AR5007 wireless interface & hotkeys on the Fujitsu Amilo Li1718 has been a problem for quite some time now. Thanks to Assaf Paz over at http://www.amilo-forum.com who wrote the auto install script many Li1718 owners were able to get ubuntu linux working on this laptop. He continued to maintain his script up to the 8.10 Intepid Ibex release. I had to make changes & additions to his script here at http://www.amilo-forum.com/post,9727.html#p8610 to get it working with 9.04 Jaunty. In the case of 9.10 Karmic, for the first time the AR5007 wireless was being detected properly but still could not be turned on because the hotkeys still didn't work. Because of a number of changes in 9.10 Karmic, Assaf's fsca16xx.sh script which I had working with Jaunty didn't work with Karmic. I tried many times to get the acerhk module working in Karmic but was having many problems while browsing for clues I found this article at http://www.edbl.no/karmic/amilo_1718_wireless_in_ubuntu_9.10.txt which when i tested worked perfectly. I simplified the process by writing a small script "amilo-hk-lanon" and posted it here at the amilo forums http://www.amilo-forum.com/post,9727.html#p9708 It would be great if the problem with the hotkeys on this latop could be resolved especially now that the atheros interface now works. -- Special Keys doesn't work on Fujitsu siemens amilo LI 1718 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/250732 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 250732] Re: Special Keys doesn't work on Fujitsu siemens amilo LI 1718
hi Yoboy I'm not sure where to start with this one so before I post the outputs of xev etc it might be worth saying that the Fujitsi Amilo 1718 Li was sold by big supermarkets namely Tesco etc and so owners trying Ubuntu might not get as far as bug reports etc before giving up but they are out there in large numbers. The script mentioned by Alexander is a lifesaver for people like me and was written by Assaf Paz originally for a 1600 series amilo and can be found on the amilo forums as well as his damagedspline blog listed above http://www.amilo-forum.com/topic,929,60,-linux-on-amilo-li-1718.htm After a clean install of Ubuntu 8.10 and all current updates the Hotkeys that work are all accessed by using the Fn key + another so Fn+F1 should be sleep/hibernate this works but a bit too well as nothing will wake the machine up again needs fix Fn+F3 Mutes sound xev sees this and identifies it also the gnome desktop shows a graphical muted speaker Fn+F5 Volume up xev sees this identifies it and gnome desktop graphical speaker up shows Fn+F6 Volume down xev sees this and identifies it gnome desktop shops a graphical speaker down Fn+F7 brightness up Xev sees something doesn't identify it as brightness no graphical display on desktop but key works Fn+F8 brightness down xev doen't see at all no graphical display on gnome desktop but key works brightness goes down now the fancy keys for wireless internet Fan quieten none of them do anything Also because Ubuntu 8.10 misidentifies the built in wireless card it knows its atheros but goes for the wrong device id the script has to fix that. But here we are concerned with the hotkeys only so looking in /user/share/hotkeys we won't have a suitable entry for the amilo until after the script is run then we have a new entry when we issue the command hotkey -l in a terminal we find fsca16xx.def which contains the following information Cool-n'-Quiet On$ Wireless On/Off<$ Assaf Paz damagedspl...@aim.com hopefully that helps you identify the keys If you give me some instructions on what you need to fix the keys and identify the model correctly on install I am only too glad to help apparently the fix using acerhk will not work on a 64bit kernel I'm pretty sure Assaf Paz would be a mine of useful information if contacted. -- Special Keys doesn't work on Fujitsu siemens amilo LI 1718 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/250732 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 250732] Re: Special Keys doesn't work on Fujitsu siemens amilo LI 1718
I have a fujitsu seimens amilo 1718 and I can confirm that Ubuntu 8.10 does not recognise the hotkeys When I used Ubuntu 7.10 I used a modified version of acerhk thanks to the instructions at http://damagedspline.blogspot.com/ This involved removing Madwifi drivers and using the Ndiswrapper instead with the drivers for windows XP That should not be neccessary now as the support for the wireless card is now taken care of by the madwifi atheros driver at installation The problem remains though that the wireless button on the laptop which operates once for wireless on, and then again for wireless off is not recognised and does nothing. The modification of acerhk forced the module to autowlan=1 and force_series=5020 and in addition modprobe.d was to tell the system to load acerhk at boot ( apparently it would not load the module because the laptop is not recognised as an acer) The problem is much simplified now though, because as soon as the wireless key can be enabled the setup for wireless will just be a matter using net-applet to configure the network -- Special Keys doesn't work on Fujitsu siemens amilo LI 1718 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/250732 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
