Ok, so after some debugging the fix is working but it hits a bug on some Dell laptops
>From my Inspirong 11 debugging - sudo evemu-record <pick the keyboard interface> press the airplane key -> double events are generated then to fix it - cat /sys/class/dmi/id/modalias and see what the "pn" is - edit /lib/udev/hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb and add a section (adapt the 'Inspiron*3138' according your 'pn' from the previous command) "#disable double airplane key events on Inspiron 3138 evdev:atkbd:dmi:bvn*:bvr*:bd*:svnDell*:pnInspiron*3138:pvr* KEYBOARD_KEY_88=unknown" - sudo udevadm hwdb --update - sudo udevadm trigger try again, the flackyness should be fixed (and the event record should show "unknow" keys now) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to libxkbcommon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1740894 Title: KEY_RFKILL is not passed to userspace Status in libxkbcommon package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in xkeyboard-config package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in xorgproto package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in xkeyboard-config source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Status in xkeyboard-config source package in Cosmic: Fix Committed Bug description: * Impact the airplane mode key doesn't work in GNOME * Test case Use a laptop with a key to activate airplane mode, it should toggle the corresponding mode on/off when used * Regression potential The change adds a new key definition but doesn't touch any existing one, nothing specific to test out of the new key working --------------------- There are a couple things going on, that could be fixed by a Debian or Ubuntu maintainer: - libxkbdcommon needs to be updated from 0.7.1 to 0.7.2. This introduces the RFKill key: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives /wayland-devel/2017-August/034721.html - x11-proto needs a new release. This commit added RFKill, but it is not in a release: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/proto/xproto/commit/?id=98a32d328e7195e12c38baa877917335bceffbaf - Likely other X11 packages need to be rebuilt.
