Here are my results of testing against xubuntu-12.10-beta2-desktop-amd64 kernel 3.5.0-15/17 (and 12.04 amd64 kernel 3.2.0.32 for reference):
Key 12.04 12.10 Function ------- ----- ----- -------- Fn+Esc Y Y Switch built-in speaker on/off. Fn+F5 Y Y Switch between laptop screen and external display. Fn+F6 Y Y Decrease display brightness. Fn+F7 Y Y Increase display brightness. Fn+F8 N Y Switch wireless on/off. Fn+F9 N N Switch touchpad on/off. Fn+F10 Y Y Switch cursor control overlay on/off. Fn+F11 Y Y Switch numeric overlay on/off. Fn+3 Y Y Decrease built-in speaker volume. Fn+4 Y Y Increase built-in speaker volume. Fn+F8 wireless has been fixed. Fn+F9 touchpad continues not to work although it was working pre-12.04. Other keystrokes seem to have been correctly preserved. I was unable to test against the latest upstream kernel. After installing: linux-image-3.7.0-030700rc1-generic_3.7.0-030700rc1.201210161007_amd64.deb the machine failed to boot, giving the following messages: [ 0.000000] tsc: Fast TSC calibration failed Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems: ... ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/552c... does not exist. ** Tags removed: needs-upstream-testing ** Tags added: kernel-unable-to-test-upstream kernel-unable-to-test-upstream-3.7.0 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/815419 Title: Unable to disable wireless on Toshiba NB520 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/815419/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
