I have the same problem. I believe that <keycode> are defined in ./usr/include/linux/input.h'. Can you run 'setkeycodes e008 225' and 'setkeycodes e008 224' and then press the buttons and see what happens?
On my system this silences the kernel messages, but does not cause the laptop brightness to actually change. However if I run 'lshal -m' while pressing them, I can see that HAL picks up the events... I guess it just does not know what to do with them. How about for you? ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #475851 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=475851 ** Also affects: linux via http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=475851 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- [regression] Brightness hotkeys don't work anymore https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/216436 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
