Thanks Matt.
Sound works now for me as well. The hardware mute button and the
software mute button work independently, i.e. if you press one, the
status change isn't reflected in the other one. Furthermore, the
software mute has precedence over the hardware mute. Not perfect, but
much better than no sound.
I did not have a .../20thirdparty/30-keymap-private.fdi on my machine.
Now I have one with the contents included below. Result: when I press
Fn/F9 or Fn/F10 I now get the brightness icon on the screen that
indicates how the brightness goes up or down. This wasn't there before,
but the brightness still doesn't change.
By the way, does you 6930p come with Intel video, or do you have an ATI
card?
