Public bug reported: When using the keyboard shortcut on my Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo Li1818 laptop to alter the sound volume, it locks up.
If I press Fn-F5 to turn the volume up one notch (or F6 to turn it down), the computer will respond to this as if I was holding the keys and not releasing. After this All keys are dead, part from Fn-F5 or Fn-F6. Also it becomes impossible to open the menus in gnome. So The computer needs to be rebooted to work properly again. Fn-F7 and Fn-F8 for screen lighting works flawlessly. I am currently using Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex, kernel 2.6.27-7-generic. It has been present since I first tried 8.10 out with the release candidate. This bug was not present in 8.04, though I have found it in Fedora 9 and 10beta. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [Intrepid] Fn-key locks up computer https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/293642 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
