** Description changed: - I have a Microsoft Wireless Keyboard 3000, part of a wireless RF - keyboard/mouse bundle, which comes with several media keys (Back, - Forward, Play/Pause, Vol. Down, Vol. Up, Mute, Home, Search, Mail and - Calculator). They worked perfectly in Hardy once I got all the keysyms - straight in gnome-keybinding-properties. - - Since updating to Intrepid beta (via update-manager), none of these - multimedia keys work anymore. Apparently, no KeyPress/KeyRelease event - is generated when they are pressed (checked with gnome-keybinding- - properties and with xev). Further, I have gone as far as to go to a - (tty) console and use 'kbd_mode -s' to see the raw input from the - keyboard (thankfully I remembered about SysRq+R before rebooting ;)), - and the multimedia keys do not generate any. - - I am using the Generic 105 keys international distribution, which used - to work perfectly under Hardy. I have also tried many other - possibilities, including every Microsoft-branded keyboard in the - database, several unrelated models and some of the generic keyboards - (including the "Evdev-managed"), to no avail. - - I have seen several other similar bugs, but none of them related to - exactly the same behavior. I am using Intrepid beta, up to date. + Microsoft Wireless Keyboard 3000 user here. Confirming this is indeed a + regression. I didn't realize how much I relied on the special keys + until they disappeared! Would appreciate any insight into why this + regression occurred, in addition to what might be done to fix it.
