[Bug 550979] Re: Volume increase decrease by function buttons never release on Dell Studio 1558
I suffer the same problem in my HP 6730b. When I press the + or - volume function keys (tactile keys between keyboard and screen) then the key blinks like if it's being continously pressed and notify-osd shows in the screen the volume meter until I reboot the computer. The notify-osd volume meter then appears continuosly and it sometimes steals the keyboard focus and mouse motion so I have to reboot to continue working correctly in my lapton. Those keys worked perfectly in 9.04 and 9.10, and have started working incorrectly after upgrade to 10.04. -- Volume increase decrease by function buttons never release on Dell Studio 1558 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550979 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Matt -- that is correct: The 95-keyboard-force-release.rules method is only applicable to 10.04 Beta -- it will not work for previous releases. Fixing this for 9.10 requires a fix in the kernel itself. I am going to try to extend the in-kernel fix for the Studio 1557 (now pending for release in 9.10) to also work for the Studio 1558. ** Changed in: udev (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = In Progress ** Changed in: udev (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Kamal Mostafa (kamalmostafa) -- Volume increase decrease by function buttons never release on Dell Studio 1558 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550979 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Ubuntu 10.04 Beta users can install a test fix for this problem from this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~kamalmostafa/+archive/lucid-volume-keys The PPA applies a fix similar to the method outlined by Jerone in comment #3 (either method works just as well for the Dell Studio 1558). -- Volume increase decrease by function buttons never release on Dell Studio 1558 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550979 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Got a hold of a 1558 the fix does work. Submitted to upstream udev.

Thanks Jerone -- yes, I also confirm the fix for the Dell Studio 1558. I also note that there are reports of the exact same problem on other (non-Dell) laptop models (LP: #42043, LP: #374884). The same fix is likely to work for them too. Would you like to address those bugs, or should I? ** Changed in: udev (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed -- Volume increase decrease by function buttons never release on Dell Studio 1558 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550979 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Moved this bug report over from bug #465250 I'm running Karmic (9.10) amd64 on my Dell Studio 1558 (Intel Core i3 processor) and I also experience this bug. The mute key (F7) works fine. But the volume up (F9) and volume down (F8) keys have problems Not only do they not stop increasing (or decreasing) in volume, but my computer becomes unresponsive. I find myself having to press control + alt + delete to restart (brings me back to the good old days of Windows!) Looking forward to a fix. @Jerone Thank you for the file. So if I understand correctly, copying 95 -keyboard-force-release.rules to /lib/udev/rules.d/ will only work on 10.04, and not on 9.10? -- Volume increase decrease by function buttons never release on Dell Studio 1558 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550979 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
