Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: udev
The special media keys in the Toshiba Satellite U500 do not work.
Following the instructions in /usr/share/doc/udev/README.keymap.txt.gz
I've tried to create a keymap to sort this out (attached), with not very
good results:
*The mute key was originally mapped to 'd'. Apparently it is linked to
the 'd' key itself, because changing the mapping of this key also
changes the mapping of the 'd' key to mute! This makes the keyboard
unusable, of course.
* Next/previous track do not work, even with the mapping attached.
* There is a key -supposed to launch the media player- that does not do
anything even under sudo /lib/udev/keymap -i input/event3. This key
works in Windows.
I'm using Ubuntu 10.10, and udev version 162-2.1
The output of cat /sys/class/dmi/id/sys_vendor is TOSHIBA
The output of cat /sys/class/dmi/id/product_name is SATELLITE U500
Thanks for your help. Cheers,
Manolo
