Public bug reported:
The Fn+F8 and Fn+F9 keys are not working on my Clevo W350ST with Kubuntu
Raring to change screen brightness of the internal laptop screen. I
installed linux-headers-3.11.0-4, linux-headers-3.11.0-4-generic,
linux-image-3.11.0-4-generic and linux-image-extra-3.11.0-4-generic
from Saucy packages repository but the problem persists.
When trying:
$ xev | sed -n 's/^.*state \([0-9].*\), keycode *\([0-9]\+\) *\(.*\),
.*$/keycode \2 = \3, state = \1/p'
keycode 36 = (keysym 0xff0d, Return), state = 0x10
keycode 232 = (keysym 0x1008ff03, XF86MonBrightnessDown), state = 0x10
keycode 233 = (keysym 0x1008ff02, XF86MonBrightnessUp), state = 0x10
Event codes appear correctly.
And changing:
/sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness
changes the brightness of the screen, but pressing the key combination
does not. I believe this happens because the key combination is, in
fact, changing the value of
/sys/class/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness
I have
http://ppa.launchpad.net/xorg-edgers/ppa/ubuntu
http://ppa.launchpad.net/bumblebee/stable/ubuntu
in my package sources
Thanks!
