Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: hotkey-setup
Somewhere along the gutsy development track, some acpi hotkeys on my asus
laptop keyboard stopped working. The concerned keys are the Lock, Eject and
Brightness buttons.
They can be fixed by adding the following lines to
/usr/share/hotkey-setup/asus.hk:
setkeycodes e005 $KEY_BRIGHTNESSDOWN # Brightness down button
setkeycodes e006 $KEY_BRIGHTNESSUP # Brightness up button
setkeycodes e009 $KEY_EJECTCD # Eject button
setkeycodes e00a $KEY_COFFEE # Lock key
The brightness keys did not actually generate a key event yet on a default
installation, but are possible to integrate into gnome by following the
information in bug 76593.
Also, there's these 2 for the Fn+F7 and Fn+F8 keys. Not sure about the actual
$KEY they should get, i mainly post these for completeness.
setkeycodes e007 $KEY_SWITCHVIDEOMODE # Fn+F7 (backlight on/off)
setkeycodes e00b $KEY_VIDEOOUT # Fn+F8 (display switch)
They generate the following acpi events:
Fn+F7:
hotkey ATKD 00000033 (when turning on)
hotkey ATKD 00000034 (when turning off)
Fn+F8:
hotkey ATKD 00000061
