Hello dear Debian-eeepc people,
I've installed the latest eeepc-acpi-scripts 1.0.11 from sid, it
mostly works, and I'd like to ask for advice to address some problems ;
I've listed below the function keys available on the 1002HA (a
newer revision of 1000H), there is some differences with common eeepc
models :
Key Function Code received by hotkey.sh Remarks
Fn-F1 sleep don't receive any code works, handled by
gnome-power-manager (acpi event?)
Fn-F2 wireless/bluet. 00000010 doesn't work¹
Fn-F5 : -light 00000020 to 0000002f works, but no OSD, and
xbacklight don't see any changes
and
Fn-F6 : +.light id. id.
Fn-F7 : screen off 00000016 doesn't work
(unrecognized key)
could work ifcode used
like 0000001a²
Fn-F8 : vga toggle 00000031 works nice with latest
eeepc-acpi-scripts :-)
Fn-F9 : "task manager" 00000012 do nothing (and gives
FnF6 code :-(
Fn-F10 : sound mute 00000013 works well.
Fn-F11 : - sound 00000014 works³
Fn-F12 : + sound 00000015 works³
"Super-Hybrid-Power extra key" 00000039 do nothing. bindable to
a special XKB key ?
¹ this eeepc model's wireless card is driven by ath9k driver, and I don't have
/sys/devices/platform/eeepc/wlan file, so the wireless.sh code doesn't work.
² patching hotkey.sh to handle 00000016 like 0000001a let it works, but any
key/mouse event light the screen back : could we use instead a switch like
'xrandr -output LVDS --off | --auto' to have a permanent state ?
³ there are 2 OSD : one from eeepc-acpi-script, with a volume percentage, which
works well, and one from Gnome desktop I suppose, with a speaker icon and a
thermometer, which don't have the right value : the thermometer is filled at
about 50% of the maximum sound level...
I also had to modify the /etc/modprobe.d/eeepc file to remove the
'pciehp_slot_with_bus=1' option of pciehp, which doesn't exist anymore on
2.6.28 (requested for ath9k module).
Questions are :
- have you a suggestion to let wireless/bt toggle work ?
- Is it possible to simulate a key press with unused Fn-keys ?
with regards,
Frédéric
