Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: udev
Hi,
Volume control keys do not work reliably on my netbook (Coolbox QBook
270-02).
Those keys are pressed as a combination of Fn + right and Fn + left.
When I press any of them, sometimes they are ignored, sometimes they generate
and endless number of keypress/keyrelease event pairs while the rest of the
keys stop to work.
Attached is the output xev gets (after killing the gnome-settings-
daemon) while I do some single keypresses
Below is the output from /lib/udev/keymap -i input/event4.
r...@melon:/usr/share/doc/udev# /lib/udev/keymap -i input/event4
Press ESC to finish
