Thinkpad T520 w NVS 4200M Ubuntu 12.10 Fails to work as well.
Fixed it by patching thinkpad_acpi and recompiling (don't know if it's necessary). Someone posted http://askubuntu.com/questions/125367 /enabling-mic-mute-button-and-light-on-lenovo-thinkpads/279135#279135 before I actually managed to get this to work. The first answer gets the idea of it but there were some minor problems when I tired to use it... ie nothing happened. There was a minor problem with the bash script variables but works with some tweeking. I tested while running with sudo but won't know until I restart. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/408903 Title: Does not handle microphone mute button (KEY_MICMUTE) Status in OEM Priority Project: Triaged Status in OEM Priority Project precise series: Confirmed Status in OEM Priority Project raring series: Triaged Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “udev” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “xserver-xorg-input-evdev” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” source package in Raring: Triaged Status in “udev” source package in Raring: Triaged Status in “xserver-xorg-input-evdev” source package in Raring: Triaged Bug description: Ubuntu 9.04 Pressing the new microphone mute button does not do anything.
