** Description changed: On raring (and precise) the display brightness keys (fn+f4 and fn+f5) on my Dell Inspiron 14z turned the brightness up and down. After a saucy upgrade this no longer happens (I don't see the popup brightness bubble either). The other, similar keys (volume adjustment, etc) still work fine. Changing the values in /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness works (temporarily - it gets reset after the screen lock kicks in) I tried following the instructions in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting but this appears to be out of date (it references /usr/share/doc/udev/README.keymap.txt which does not exist) - $ lsb_release -rd - Description: Ubuntu Saucy Salamander (development branch) - Release: 13.10 + Ubuntu kernel version bisect revealed: + First bad Ubuntu kernel: 3.11.0-0.2 + last good Ubuntu kernel: 3.10.0-6.17 - $ apt-cache policy udev - udev: - Installed: 204-0ubuntu12 - Candidate: 204-0ubuntu12 - Version table: - *** 204-0ubuntu12 0 - 500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ saucy/main amd64 Packages - 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status - --- + The results of a commit bisect are pending. + + --- ApportVersion: 2.12.4-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: - USER PID ACCESS COMMAND - /dev/snd/controlC0: chris 2646 F.... pulseaudio + USER PID ACCESS COMMAND + /dev/snd/controlC0: chris 2646 F.... pulseaudio DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2011-11-18 (675 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Release amd64 (20111012) MachineType: Dell Inc.
