The color of the button is white, and when pressed changes to + red/orange, but apart of this color change, it has no effect. I have followed the directions on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting and went until step 9. This is the output I get from sudo input-events 4: [code] sudo input-events 4 /dev/input/event4 bustype : BUS_I8042 vendor : 0x1 product : 0x1 version : 43841 name : "AT Translated Set 2 keyboard" phys : "isa0060/serio0/input0" bits ev : EV_SYN EV_KEY EV_MSC EV_LED EV_REP waiting for events 22:11:35.630829: EV_MSC code=4 value=156 22:11:35.630847: EV_KEY KEY_KPENTER (0x60) released 22:11:35.630850: EV_SYN code=0 value=0 22:11:37.473023: EV_MSC code=4 value=216 22:11:37.473056: EV_SYN code=0 value=0 22:11:37.479393: EV_MSC code=4 value=216 22:11:37.479420: EV_SYN code=0 value=0 22:11:40.252551: EV_MSC code=4 value=217 22:11:40.252573: EV_KEY KEY_HELP (0x8a) pressed 22:11:40.252580: EV_SYN code=0 value=0 22:11:40.259384: EV_MSC code=4 value=217 22:11:40.259405: EV_KEY KEY_HELP (0x8a) released [/code] What I conclude from this are 2 things: - when pressing the key the first time (deactivated -> activated), the key is recognized as 216 and has an unknown symbolic key name - however when pressing it for the second time, it is recognized as 217 and has the name of "EV_KEY KEY_HELP" Does anyone have an idea how to fix this? - I'll try to attach all the recommended Useful Information: + I have attached all the recommended Useful Information: hal-find-by-capability --capability input | xargs -n1 lshal -u > lshal.log lshal |grep system.hardware > lshal_hardware.log dmesg > dmesg.log sudo lsinput > lsinput.log xkbcomp -xkb :0 - > xkbcomp.txt setxkbmap -print > xkbmap.txt Note: xkbcomp -xkb :0 generated the following warning message: Warning: Could not load keyboard geometry for :0 BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation) Resulting keymap file will not describe geometry Thanks, Emilien.
