In the original bug, they were able to restore functionality by adding some HAL rules to disable use of evdev for the device. I experimented around with doing something similar for Dell by disabling evdev for /dev/input/event4 (which xinput shows as 'Sleep Button'. It made no effect; in fact I don't think evdev is grabbing that key to begin with.
I'll experiment with it more; perhaps removing acpi-support would have an effect. -- Fn+F1 (XF86Standby) on Inspiron 1420 does not trigger hibernate or sleep https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269951 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
