Public bug reported: [Jaunty] On laptop Acer TM6292 brightness hotkey events are sent by /video/input0 and isa0060/serio0/input0
Following instructions on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting : On my laptop (Acer TM6292), if I press only one time Fn+LEFT ARROW (BRIGHTNESSDOWN hotkey), brightness levels decrease by 3 levels. Same behavior with the Fn+RIGHT ARROW (BRIGHTNESSUP hotkey): It increase levels by 3 levels for only one key press. I noticed that two devices sent events when I press these keys : /video/input0 and isa0060/serio0/input0 Here is the ouput of input-events for each device when I press these keys (first, one Fn+LEFT ARROW that one Fn+RIGHT ARROW): $ sudo input-events 5 /dev/input/event5 bustype : BUS_I8042 vendor : 0x1 product : 0x1 version : 43841 name : "AT Translated Set 2 keyboard" phys : "isa0060/serio0/input0" bits ev : EV_SYN EV_KEY EV_MSC EV_LED EV_REP waiting for events 16:21:38.290846: EV_MSC code=4 value=239 16:21:38.290860: EV_KEY KEY_BRIGHTNESSDOWN (0xe0) pressed 16:21:38.290865: EV_SYN code=0 value=0 16:21:38.396045: EV_MSC code=4 value=239 16:21:38.396053: EV_KEY KEY_BRIGHTNESSDOWN (0xe0) released 16:21:38.396056: EV_SYN code=0 value=0 16:21:40.003041: EV_MSC code=4 value=206 16:21:40.003051: EV_KEY KEY_KPPLUSMINUS (0x76) pressed 16:21:40.003055: EV_SYN code=0 value=0 16:21:40.128254: EV_MSC code=4 value=206 16:21:40.128263: EV_KEY KEY_KPPLUSMINUS (0x76) released 16:21:40.128267: EV_SYN code=0 value=0 16:21:40.153500: EV_KEY KEY_BRIGHTNESSUP (0xe1) pressed 16:21:40.153580: EV_KEY KEY_BRIGHTNESSUP (0xe1) released $ sudo input-events 6 /dev/input/event6 bustype : BUS_HOST vendor : 0x0 product : 0x6 version : 0 name : "Video Bus" phys : "/video/input0" bits ev : EV_SYN EV_KEY waiting for events 16:16:09.244158: EV_KEY KEY_BRIGHTNESSDOWN (0xe0) pressed 16:16:09.244172: EV_SYN code=0 value=0 16:16:09.244180: EV_KEY KEY_BRIGHTNESSDOWN (0xe0) released 16:16:09.244185: EV_SYN code=0 value=0 16:16:11.747476: EV_KEY KEY_BRIGHTNESSUP (0xe1) pressed 16:16:11.747486: EV_SYN code=0 value=0 16:16:11.747492: EV_KEY KEY_BRIGHTNESSUP (0xe1) released 16:16:11.747497: EV_SYN code=0 value=0 As you can see in input-events 5 (for isa0060/serio0/input0 device). Pressing FN+ARROW RIGHT also send KEY_KPPLUSMINUS.
