[Bug 293642] Re: [Intrepid] Fn-key locks up computer
This bug happens as well in Karmic, for volume up/down only, on the Dell Studio 1555, 1557, and 1558 models. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1401746 for a discussion with several confirming reports. A temporary fix I discovered is to turn off key-repeat entirely, which alleviates the problem somewhat. Is there any chance someone can come up with a xmodmap script of some sort to remap the volume keys to a "press and release" action, if such a thing exists?

[Bug 293642] Re: [Intrepid] Fn-key locks up computer
Marked bug as non-duplicate. If this volume-control/repeat-forever bug is still affecting you: It has come to my attention that there is a flood of keyboard volume button/wheel =hardware= quirks that have never been dealt with, all having the same general problems: you press volume button (up or down), volume goes all the way up or down, and then your input becomes unresponsive. To keep a long story short, there is a fair chance (though not guaranteed) that this is a kernel input driver bug/quirk for your volume control input device. (and even if not, the following will help determine what is wrong) What I need the bug submitter to do (if not already), is to provide a model number for their laptop/desktop (or if custom-built, provide the model number of your: keyboard or multimedia device with the volume control realted to this bug) - and if you could please, put that model number in the summery with something like this: "Toshiba Satellite U300 volume button repeating forever" If we can keep these volume control bugs pertaining to the __system/hardware in question__, it will help the maintainers a lot more. Althought I can't guarantee/guess immediately what is going on here, what I will suggest is: Provide some logs of the following: (If you get some logs that run forever, please cut them short) # echo "dmidecode > mydmilog.txt" | sudo bash # echo "showkey -s > mykeylog.txt" | sudo bash (use your volume up, volume down, volume up, and then volume down) # echo "xev > myxevlog.txt" | sudo bash (use your volume up, volume down, volume up, and then volume down) This will greatly assist the maintainers in understanding and dealing with your bug. Hopefully this helps speed these problems along :) ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 271706 Toshiba Satellite U300 volume wheel sticking -- [Intrepid] Fn-key locks up computer https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/293642 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

Confirmed on AMILO Xi 2428. I did a showkey log after Ctrl-Alt-F1 and stopping hotkeys, and indeed: my fn-mute, fn-volume down and fn-volume up key releases are not noticed by the system: keycode 28 release (initial release of return) keycode 4 press (tested the stuff by pressing "4") keycode 4 release (released "4") keycode 113 press (pressed fn-mute (fn-F3), notice no release event) keycode 5 press (tested by pressing "5") keycode 5 release keycode 114 press (pressed fn-volume down (fn-F4), again no release noticed) keycode 6 press (test by pressing "6") keycode 6 release keycode 115 press (pressed fn-volume up (fn-F5)) keycode 7 press (test by "7") keycode 7 release These all worked perfectly in 8.04. fn-brightness down (fn-F8) and up (fn-F9) are still working flawlessly. -- [Intrepid] Fn-key locks up computer https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/293642 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

Ok. I think it's a bluetooth problem: I unfreezed the system by stopping bluetooth services (my laptop doesn't have bluetooth...). Maybe the acpi event fired by pressing Fn-F5/Fn-F6 involves bluetooth. I'm search for the script called by these buttons and seeing if there's a bluetooth invocation to disable.
