Hi there, I've looked at the key code sequence and it appears that the current sony-laptop driver in Hardy does not support it for your model type. What is more curious is that I cannot see how it worked for feisty or gutsy kernels in the sonypi.c driver. Since this is reported as a regression, if you have an older system still installed that works with the eject key, can you do the following on that working system:
sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/options and add options sonypi verbose=2 reboot and press the key several times and send the dmesg output. This way I can see where the sonypi and the newer sony-laptop drivers differ in their handling of the eject key. Thank you. -- [regression] [hardy] sony eject button doesn't work anymore https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/187980 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
