Package: hal Version: 0.5.12~git20090406.46dc48-2 Severity: normal in my thinkpad X61, all 'extra' buttons work with exception of the 'Ctrl-F5' , which is supposed to toggle all radios (bluetooth&wifi)
To debug it, I have followed procedure given in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting and here's what I have found: 1) 'xev' does not see anything when I press Ctrl-F5 2) using 'hal-find-by-capability --capability input | xargs -n1 lshal -u' I have concluded that the thinkpad extra keys are device /dev/input/event6. 3) utumno:/dev/input# lshal -u /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer_logicaldev_input_4 udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer_logicaldev_input_4' button.has_state = true (bool) button.state.value = true (bool) button.type = 'radio' (string) info.addons.singleton = {'hald-addon-input'} (string list) info.callouts.add = {'hal-setup-keymap', 'debian-setup-keyboard'} (string list) info.capabilities = {'input', 'input.keys', 'input.switch', 'button', 'input.keymap'} (string list) info.category = 'input' (string) info.parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer' (string) info.product = 'ThinkPad Extra Buttons' (string) info.subsystem = 'input' (string) info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer_logicaldev_input_4' (string) input.device = '/dev/input/event6' (string) input.keymap.data = {'0x01:screenlock', '0x02:battery', '0x03:sleep', '0x04:radio', '0x06:switchvideomode', '0x07:f22', '0x08:f24', '0x0b:suspend', '0x0f:brightnessup', '0x10:brightnessdown', '0x11:kbdillumtoggle', '0x13:zoom', '0x14:volumeup', '0x15:volumedown', '0x16:mute', '0x17:prog1'} (string list) input.product = 'ThinkPad Extra Buttons' (string) input.x11_driver = 'evdev' (string) input.xkb.layout = 'us' (string) input.xkb.model = 'thinkpad' (string) input.xkb.rules = 'base' (string) linux.device_file = '/dev/input/event6' (string) linux.hotplug_type = 2 (0x2) (int) linux.subsystem = 'input' (string) linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/devices/virtual/input/input6/event6' (string) 4) utumno:/dev/input# input-events 6 /dev/input/event6 bustype : BUS_HOST vendor : 0x17aa product : 0x5054 version : 16641 name : "ThinkPad Extra Buttons" phys : "thinkpad_acpi/input0" bits ev : EV_SYN EV_KEY EV_MSC EV_SW waiting for events 00:46:45.490685: EV_KEY KEY_RADIO pressed 00:46:45.490708: EV_SYN code=0 value=0 00:46:45.490714: EV_KEY KEY_RADIO released 00:46:45.490719: EV_SYN code=0 value=0 - as we can see, 'input-events' sees the 'Ctrl-F5' keypress. 5) utumno:/dev/input# cat /usr/include/linux/input.h | grep KEY_RADIO #define KEY_RADIO 0x181 At this point we see that the 'KEY_RADIO' is mapped to 0x181, which is > 255, and that is the reason why X does not see this key.
