Okay, I've created some test packages. Please keep in mind these are only test packages, I haven't even sent upstream yet. To get around the complications with keycodes over 248 I've remapped to the F20 key, which most keyboards don't have. We've been using the Function keys for this purpose for a while now, for example, touchpadtoggle events are F21.
Please let me know if there are any dependencies missing. These packages were compiled on Precise, and it is very likely they will be overwritten by a future sru: http://people.canonical.com/~jmleddy/micmute/ You can see what it looks like here: http://people.canonical.com/~jmleddy/micmute/2012-08-07-132202_1366x768_scrot.png All the source is in my source directory under the name micmute: https://code.launchpad.net/~jm-leddy/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/408903 Title: Does not handle microphone mute button (KEY_MICMUTE) Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “udev” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “xserver-xorg-input-evdev” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Ubuntu 9.04 Pressing the new microphone mute button does not do anything.
