Hi, I have a problem after recent upgrade from debian wheezy to jessie, because of hardware replacement. The goal was to get a newer Xorg server version that would support the intel graphic controller on Dell e5440.
After the upgrade the multimedia keys on the notebook are working but the multimedia keys on the external usb keyboard are not. They even not register in xev as suggested to test in several forums. I already tried 105key and latitude in /etc/defaults/keyboard and xorg.conf but with no success. When searching in google on "a4techKB21" I found this http://osdir.com/ml/debian-bugs-dist/2011-05/msg00724.html which describes similar (I would say 95%) to my issue. I use custom build 3.19 kernel - see below for other details How could I solve this problem? Thank you in advance Some information on the system $ Xorg -version X.Org X Server 1.16.4 Release Date: 2014-12-20 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0 Build Operating System: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 x86_64 Debian Current Operating System: Linux maistor 3.19.2eko4 #2 SMP Thu Mar 26 23:50:33 CET 2015 x86_64 Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-3.19.2eko4 root=/dev/mapper/G300-root ro oops=panic printk.time=1 splash memory_corruption_check=1 quiet Build Date: 11 February 2015 12:32:02AM xorg-server 2:1.16.4-1 (http://www.debian.org/support) Current version of pixman: 0.32.6 Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org to make sure that you have the latest version. $ lsusb Bus 003 Device 003: ID 0424:2514 Standard Microsystems Corp.
