[Bug 1432976] Re: Battery hot key does not bring up the power management dialog in Trusty

 

This bug was fixed in the package unity-settings-daemon -
15.04.1+15.04.20150318-0ubuntu1

---------------
unity-settings-daemon (15.04.1+15.04.20150318-0ubuntu1) vivid; urgency=medium

  [ Ryan Tandy ]
  * Don't call XSyncQueryCounter with a null counter. Avoids a crash
    under FreeNX/X2Go which don't support the IDLETIME counter. (LP:
    #1416081)

  [ Sebastien Bacher ]
  * Open the battery info dialog when using the corresponding hotkey.
    The current code was trying to display a notification with the info
    but we don't have design on how that should look like with notify-
    osd so go back to what we were doing before (LP: #1432976)
  * Restore code that set the scaling factor according the screen dpi,
    but only when not under and Unity session. That was desactived in
    r4020 because Unity is handling those values, but this is not the
    case under ubiquity or unity-greeter. (LP: #1286878)

Title:
  Battery hot key does not bring up the power management dialog in
  Trusty

Status in HWE Next Project:
  Invalid
Status in unity-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  * Impact
  the battery hotkey doesn't do anything

  * Test case:
  On a laptop with a special key for battery info press fn+f3
  -> the power info dialog should be displayed

  * Regression potential
  the action used before was buggy, having a valid one shouldn't create any issue

  The battery hotkey on this system (fn+f3) cannot bring up the power management dialog.
  Also verified with 14.04.2 on LiveUSB, it's not working as well.
  But it works with 12.04.5 on LiveUSB. (Maybe it's user-space related?)

  It seems that the key event could be detected properly, it could pass
  our checkbox test (which will check the '0xe071,0xef1:Battery Info'
  signal)

  ubuntu@201209-11840:~$ sudo showkey -k
  kb mode was ?UNKNOWN?
