I have a Lenovo Thinkpad on which the kernel driver thinkpad_acpi is supporting special keys like Fn+F3 => sleep etc. Fn+F5 is supposed to be bluetooth on/off and is handled in a special way: It's only supported through the event interface, not as a key press.
This used to work fine with acpid, but is failing after installing linux-image-2.6.29-1-amd64, in which CONFIG_ACPI_PROC_EVENT is disabled. I run acpid like this (-n added after upgrading to 2.6.29 kernel): /usr/sbin/acpid -l -n and have a log any event script enabled: bj...@nemi:~$ cat /etc/acpi/events/any event=.* action=/etc/acpi/logit.sh %e bj...@nemi:~$ cat /etc/acpi/logit.sh #!/bin/sh echo `date`: $* >>/var/log/acpi-log Still, there is nothing printed in /var/log/acpi-log when pushing Fn+F5 Bjørn -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
