FIRST >Hence, if you are not willing to help debug this at all, how would you expect any developers to want to work on your issue?
It is not "my" issue, it's everybody's issue. I just happen to be somebody who experienced and reported it. I don't "expect" anything from any developer if by "expect" we mean "think they should or have to". But if by "expect" we mean merely "to regard as probable or likely; anticipate", then given that there are developers who work in improving and fixing Ubuntu, whatever is the reason that moves them to devote their effort to make Ubuntu a better software (something I appreciate and for which I'm infinitely grateful), I do "expect" them to be interested in fixing a bug regardless of whether the person who reported it is able (or willing) to do any extra work. Because whether or not I do, the bug is there. That's what I would do if somebody reported to me a bug in some piece of software I had written (or which I happened to be maintaining) SECOND > by not testing the upstream kernel, you are limiting the developers who are > going to look at this to only downstream (Ubuntu) developers. Your are ASSUMING that this is a bug in Linux. I reported it against linux just because I didn't know a way to report it generically (and the ubuntu-bug command doesn't seem to provide a way), but it's not clear at all what package the bug belongs to, so even BEFORE we talk about upstream/downstream, this should be triaged. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1353129 Title: [REGRESSION 2014-08] Volume up/down keys, and printScreen key, have stopped working Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: All of a sudden, the volume keys from the keyboard have stopped working. The volume control on the top right corner of the screen does work if used with the mouse. I have both an external usb keyboard with dedicated volume + and - keys, and the builtin laptop keyboard where the volume +/-keys are the combination of the Fn key plus the up/down arrows. All these used to work up to a few minutes ago. Now none of them works. I think they stopped working with the last reboot.
