Found a handy page at the Ubuntu Wiki called HotkeyResearch, I followed the instructions and here are the results (as requested). It turns out Fn + F3 does not seem to generate keycodes, at least showkey doesn't catch them. However, when looking in /var/log/acpid for ACPI events it shows the following:
received event "ibm/hotkey HKEY 00000080 00001003" Interestingly enough it also shows the following error (it's generated by /etc/acpi/screenblank.sh, which is sourced by thinkpad- lockorbattery.sh): Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server Xlib: Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key xset: unable to open display ":0" What's interesting is that the lid button "button/lid LID 00000080 00000005" calls /etc/acpi/lid.sh but calls CheckPolicy from /usr/share /acpi-support/policy-funcs and quits (because it shows gnome-power- manager running). Does it let gnome-power-manager handle the event? That would make sense since that's where the action for lid close is defined. Since lid.sh does basically the same as screenblank.sh, if the call to CheckPolicy failed the same error would be generated. I couldn't find any information describing the cookie error, so I haven't got a clue what to try next. Hopefully someone with more experience will be able to give some insight into the problem, it doesn't actually seem to be related to this bug report. I attached the relevant parts from the acpid log. ** Attachment added: "/var/log/acpid" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10303530/acpid-log.txt -- FN + F3 shited to FN + F2 after system update on IBM https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/67968 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
