Also, now that I am back to kernel 4.10, wireless is back but the volume
keys still do not work. Some other updates were performed as well so
that might be a coincidence.

Title:
  Brightness control keys not working on Gigabyte P57 laptop

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I have a gigabyte P57 laptop running Ubuntu 16.04 kernel 4.8.x. My
  brightness control keys (fn+F3, fn+F4) are not getting detected. After
  reading about how keypresses are handled by the Linux kernel, I used
  showkey to check the scancodes of these keys. I did not get any
  output. Similarly no output from xev, evtest and acpi_listen.

  Just for your reference, other keys like volume up (fn+F9) are working 
alright.
