So, my experimentation bears fruit. I created a file (for test purposes, it's clearly not a global solution): [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/acpi$ cat if-asus-eee.sh #!/bin/bash `dirname $0`/$1
which doesn't really test to see if it is an eeepc, it just runs the command anyway. Now my volume (mute, vol up, vol dn) work just fine. Wireless doesn't (sleep and brightness always have.) -- EeePC Volume and Wireless Hotkeys Do Not Function Out-Of-The-Box with Ubuntu (8.04 Hardy LTS, Intrepid Alpha 1) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/232170 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu EEEPC, which is a direct subscriber.

With a fresh install of Ubuntu 8.04 LTS (Hardy Heron) the wireless (fn+f2) and volume hotkeys (fn+f7/f8/f9) do not function. Expected function: fn+f2: Toggle wireless fn+f7: Mute/Unmute fn+f8: Volume up fn+f9: Volume down Workarounds are documented here: Wireless Hotkey: http://wiki.eeeuser.com/getting_ubuntu_8.04_to_work_perfectly#wifi_hotkeys Volume Hotkeys: http://wiki.eeeuser.com/getting_ubuntu_8.04_to_work_perfectly#hotkeys Although I have not had much success at getting these working myself. It would be great if these would work out-of-the-box with 8.04.1 or Intrepid. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-eeepc Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-eeepc More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
