Nick Moeck: your patch is invalid. You need to edit the @ modified section delimiters to have a valid patch.
Aryeh Gregor: I tried applying your patch on linux-image 2.6.31-17-generic but it does not apply: 'atkbd_volume_forced_release_keys' is not in standard kernel. I've fixed it and you will find the 'generic' patch attached. Nevertheless it does not fix the problem.

The second is turning the wheel one notch Up. a) the event is repeated 3 times - looks like the anti-repeat in drivers/input/keyboard/atkbd.c:482 does not work in this case b) even with atkbd_setup_forced_release quirk the sequence is wrong - this is why I posted Space keypress for reference VolumeUp key is depressed (0) then pressed (1) three times This leaves the button in pressed state, causing the "sticking" behavior. ** Attachment added: "quirks for toshiba volume wheel" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/38007214/atkbd-toshiba-volume-quirk.patch -- Toshiba Satellite U300 volume wheel sticking https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/271706 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
