Status New I have updated the BIOS from version 1503 (1-16-13) to version 2501.
Here is the output of your command: marty@tux:~$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date [sudo] password for marty: 2501 04/07/2014 marty@tux:~$ The behavior is unchanged from before the BIOS update. If I wait until the system finishes booting and I am on my desktop and attempt to change the start up color of the keyboard illumination from blue to red, I lose most mouse left and right click ability on the desktop area. I can still click the gear icon and have the system log off and log back on as long as I don't wait too long. The longer I wait to attempt the log off, the less mouse function I have until all it does is move the cursor around, but nothing is clickable. The keyboard will still function for a much longer period of time until everything becomes unresponsive. My current work around is to change the keyboard color as soon as the boot process starts to load the Linux kernel. If I wait until I am on the desktop to change the color, then I must immediately log off and back on and everything is fine as long as I don't attempt to change the color again. Any further changes of keyboard color require an immediate log off and on to keep the system stable. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1352374 Title: changing backlight color on saitek eclipse 2 keyboard causes mouse failure To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1352374/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
