After looking at the debug sofar, my conclusion is that this is a problem not in the kernel driver sony-laptop, but at a higher level between acpi_fakekey and the desktop.
The facts are that Eject key events are being received by acpid: 1. We see the acpi log message: [Sat Feb 2 12:52:31 2008] received event "sony/hotkey SPIC 00000001 0000001b" ..which means that sony-laptop is managing to detect the key and push the correct keycode (SONYPI_EVENT_FNKEY_E (which is 0x1b)) via kernel routine acpi_bus_generate_proc_event(). 2. and that acpi_fakekey is pushing out the eject cd code 161 to a higher level. 3. The legacy driver sonypi detects the same port values (0x32,0x21) which the sony-laptop module handles in the same manner, meaning there is not a regression between drivers sonypi and sony-laptop. I get the bug to the appropriate team that can handle this bug at the appropriate level. -- [regression] [hardy] sony eject button doesn't work anymore https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/187980 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
