You have been subscribed to a public bug: The Fn+F8 and Fn+F9 keys are not working on my Clevo W350ST with Kubuntu Raring to change screen brightness of the internal laptop screen. I installed linux-headers-3.11.0-4, linux-headers-3.11.0-4-generic, linux-image-3.11.0-4-generic and linux-image-extra-3.11.0-4-generic from Saucy packages repository but the problem persists.
When trying: $ xev | sed -n 's/^.*state \([0-9].*\), keycode *\([0-9]\+\) *\(.*\), .*$/keycode \2 = \3, state = \1/p' keycode 36 = (keysym 0xff0d, Return), state = 0x10 keycode 232 = (keysym 0x1008ff03, XF86MonBrightnessDown), state = 0x10 keycode 233 = (keysym 0x1008ff02, XF86MonBrightnessUp), state = 0x10 Event codes appear correctly. And changing: /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness changes the brightness of the screen, but pressing the key combination does not. I believe this happens because the key combination is, in fact, changing the value of /sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness I have http://ppa.launchpad.net/xorg-edgers/ppa/ubuntu http://ppa.launchpad.net/bumblebee/stable/ubuntu in my package sources Thanks! ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Confirmed ** Tags: bot-comment -- Clevo W350ST brightness keys don't work on Kubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1218547 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
