Joseph, just curious - what makes you think that this issue is indeed kernel based? For some reason, I personally believe that this might be a gnome- setting-daemon issue. So, before I post an upstream kernel bug, could you please enlighten me? -- You received this bug notification because you

This issue appears to be an upstream bug, since you tested the latest upstream kernel. Would it be possible for you to open an upstream bug report at bugzilla.kernel.org [1]? That will allow the upstream Developers to examine the issue, and may provide a quicker resolution to the bug. If you are

I just tried the upstream kernel (3.3.0-999-generic) and the issue still persists. What else can I do? This is really frustrating, especially because the F5/F6 keys mess up the icon- and window-themes instead now. I noticed other postings regarding this issue as well here: #832603. ** Tags remov

Just wanted to show you this little Kazam screen cast that shows the behavior of the icon theme inside a Nautilus window when pressing F5. Remember - F5 used to always allow me to decrease the brightness of my MBP's keyboard backlight. Now, it messes up the icon theme... ** Attachment added: "F5

I just tried 3.2.0-12 and the behavior is the same. Really frustrating, too, as pressing F5/F6 changes the theme (icons, context menues, etc) instead of adjusting the keyboard backlight. :( uname -r 3.2.0-12-generic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs,

I would like to see this one confirmed and, as needed, expanded upon. I also have lost the brightness and audio controls, but they came back eventually, with F5/F6 still acting weird (see here for what they do now instead of changing the kb backlight brightness:https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s
