Hi, I'm trying to figure out how my Asus laptop maps function key events. This is being driven by an emerge message telling me that the acpi4asus package is being obsoleted and removed in 30 days and replaced by an in-kernel driver. I've removed the package and rebuilt my kernels to use this driver, and for vanilla-sources-3.2.7 the results are similar as with the acpi4asus package.
However, for vanilla-sources-3.2.9 the only key that is doing anything seems to be Fn-F1 which says 'button/sleep' (using acpi_listen) but actually just turns on the screen saver as best I can tell. Note that even with 3.2.7 most keys don't actually work, but at least they all produce acpi_listen events. The only ones that do work in 3.2.7 and earlier are: Fn-F1 - screen saver Fn-F5 - turns off screen but doesn't seem to generate an ACPI event in acpi_listen (may be hardware mapped) Fn-F11 - turn volume down Fn-F12 - turn volume up I haven't tested the external monitor one. The ones I really want to figure out are Fn-F3 & F4 as they turn the keyboard lighting up and down. With 3.2.7 I had lighting, but with 3.2.9 I have no keyboard lighting at all so it will have hard to use in the dark. Before I call this a 3.2.9 regression I figured I should determine if I'm supposed to configure this stuff by hand, or maybe load some new machine specific package that sets up the mappings.
