I think it is more a acpi problem than a problem of gnome: Your problem is that your keyboard shortcuts do not work anymore, isn't it?
If yes, we need three things: 1. What the key *should* do. 2. What keycode (magic number) the key produces on your laptop. 3. How to identify your laptop by the manufacturer and model. You can see the following documentation to know how to do that: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/HotkeyResearch -- Brightness Applet/Brightness Keys Do Not Work In Gateway M-7315u Laptop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/280518 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-power-manager in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
