There was a recent thread where we figured out this was due to gnome-settings-daemon adding support for XF86XK_AudioMicMute in version 3.9.2 [1], while Trusty has on 3.8. [1] https://github.com/GNOME/gnome-settings-daemon/commit/3a8beaaf380a483ce33363031d8d276c371d7af1 After some googling I find https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/408903 which implies Ubuntu added a patch to handle that key to g-s-d 3.4, so huh? Maybe that patch used the old F20 keysym? It's not present in the 3.8 debian/patches anyway. (BTW the hardware sends F20, and g-s-d handled that as "mic mute" before 3.9; what happened in 3.9 was g-s-d also started handling XF86XK_AudioMicMute since some distros -- Ubuntu included -- remapped F20 to XF86XK_AudioMicMute).

Basic professional ethics would instead require him to write a DestroyCity procedure, to which Baghdad could be given as a parameter. -- Nathaniel S Borenstein
