I know this bug has expired but I would like to provide updated information for anyone still using the Toshiba Satellite U500.
With Ubuntu 13.10 the product name is reported as "Satellite U500" instead of "SATELLITE U500". This breaks the previous fix for the volume keys in Ubuntu bug #271706. To fix this issue add the following to /etc/udev/hwdb.d/61-satellite-u500.hwdb # Satellite U500 keyboard:dmi:bvn*:bvr*:bd*:svnTOSHIBA:pn[sS][aA][tT][eE][lL][lL][iI][tT][eE]*[uU]500*:pvr* KEYBOARD_KEY_a0=!mute KEYBOARD_KEY_ae=!volumedown KEYBOARD_KEY_b0=!volumeup The above hwdb rule should match both "Satellite U500" and "SATELLITE U500". Now update the hardware database information. sudo udevadm hwdb --update The other media keys are still not working as reported in this bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/665918 Title: Media keys not working in Toshiba Satellite U500 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/665918/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
