[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1201665] Re: [[HP Pavilion dv6-4008tx Entertainment Notebook PC] Function Keys do not work - brightness, sound, wireless
I can confirm that this issue also happens in windows (The user of the function key button is not required to access the functions! But the FN key is required to use the F1-F12), therefore it's not a Linux Kernel bug, it's actually the laptop/BIOS mapping is incorrect. Therefore this is not an issue for ubuntu / kernel to resolve.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1201671] Re: [HP Pavilion dv6-4008tx Entertainment Notebook PC] Wireless key light constantly flashing when connected
In windows, orange indicates wireless hardware switch is off, white indicates wireless hardware switch is on. When disconnected and/or connected to a network in the ON state, the light stays white and does not flash. I won't be able to test any potential changes to fix it as I don't have Linux on this laptop anymore. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1201671 Title: [HP Pavilion dv6-4008tx Entertainment Notebook PC] Wireless key light constantly flashing when connected Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Expired Bug description: Hi, The wireless light at FN+F12 is alternating between white and orange all the time when connected to a wireless network.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1201665] Re: HP DV6-4008TX Function Keys do not work - brightness, sound, wireless
I've just discovered that all the keys do work - longer explanation required: The issue seems to be that the behaviour on windows is different (IIRC... this would be why i'm confused using the keyboard in linux). On windows, F1-F12 are the default actions for pressing these keys, with the function key required to access other functions like brightness and toggling the wireless. The keys themselves have F1-F12 are at the top left (superscript) of each key, with the brightness and so on in the center of each key. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1201665 Title: HP DV6-4008TX Function Keys do not work - brightness, sound, wireless Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hi, Just upgraded to saucy 13.10 as this bug exists in raring too.
