Hello all, After a full day's hard googling, I posted this to debian-laptop yesterday, but haven't had a response, so maybe here is a more appropriate place? Apologies in advance if not.
I'm running Wheezy and the multimedia/volume keys don't work in Windowmaker (they work fine with Gnome and Xfce4), nor from the console. Using xev, it seems they've been mapped correctly (from an Arch wiki page I ran this command): xev | grep -A2 --line-buffered '^KeyRelease' | sed -n '/keycode /s/^.*keycode \([0-9]*\).* (.*, \(.*\)).*$/\1 \2/p' Which gave me the output: 123 XF86AudioRaiseVolume 122 XF86AudioLowerVolume 121 XF86AudioMute The Debian wiki (http://wiki.debian.org/Keyboard/MultimediaKeys) suggests mapping them with xmodmap - but that seems a little redundant/wrong if xev is telling me they're already mapped (same with xloadkeys). I've tried installing/purging everything to do with Gnome (to get rid of specifically pulseaudio), but that doesn't make any difference - l even uninstalled ALSA and reinstalled with no joy. Other function keys like brightness/dimming work fine, it's just the volume up/down/mute that aren't working. The card (according to alsamixer is a HDA Intel / Intel Cantiga HDMI). Any help would be really appreciated. Harvey -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
