[Bug 1427877] Re: Media, brightness and volume keys don't work with GNOME 3.15.90

 

Hi Hubert,

1) no not really, its just that gnome-settings-daemon never had any
shared objects previously, so the link flags never caused a problem. I
just poked around in gdb to find the problem. You obviously can get
diffs to the previous versions via git, but that wouldn't have helped
much in this case!

2) I have no idea, its a pretty tricky case to test for, however I
suppose you could check that the pointers for the Gtypes match up
between modules, however thats all kind of wrapped up in glib ( I had to
cross into glib to code to work that out) so may not work in a test
case.

3) if you want to work on some more Ubuntu GNOME stuff, I can point you
in that direction, ping me on IRC or email.

Bug description:
  After upgrading Ubuntu 15.04 Vivid to use GNOME 3.15.90 (by using
  gnome3-team/gnome3, gnome3-team/gnome3-staging ppas) media, brightness
  and volume keys from my laptop keyboard stop to work after working
  some time in a session or after suspending the computer.

  If I restart my computer media keys work again.
