bwalex's script (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hotkey- setup/+bug/357673/comments/63) works well on my ThinkPad X31. Both volume and brightness notifications appear.
Thank you very much! However, when running from the terminal, I get an endless stream of "brightness new crap occured". The problem appears to be that my ThinkPad uses the old brightness node (/proc/acpi/ibm/brightness) However, the new brightness node still exists: p...@phil-laptop:~$ cat /proc/acpi/video/VID/LCD0/brightness <not supported> So I have modified it to check for this (again, this is a quick and dirty fix) ** Attachment added: "notify.diff" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/26340463/notify.diff -- No notification when sliding audio volume, muting volume, sliding LCD brightness on X31, X32, T60, R50e, T42, R52 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/357673 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
