[Bug 1201665] Re: [[HP Pavilion dv6-4008tx Entertainment Notebook PC] Function Keys do not work - brightness, sound, wireless

 

Given the number of bugs that the Kernel Team receives during any
development cycle it is impossible for us to review them all. Therefore,
we occasionally resort to using automated bots to request further
testing. This is such a request.

We are approaching release and would like to confirm if this bug is
still present. Please test again with the latest development kernel and
indicate in the bug if this issue still exists or not.

You can update to the latest development kernel by simply running the
following commands in a terminal window:

    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

If the bug still exists, change the bug status from Incomplete to
Confirmed. If the bug no longer exists, change the bug status from
Incomplete to Fix Released.

Thank you for your help, we really do appreciate it.


** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Incomplete

** Tags added: kernel-request-3.11.0-7.14

Bug description:
  Hi,

  Just upgraded to saucy 13.10 as this bug exists in raring too. The fn
  keys do not work.

  Brightness works in the brightness panel with the slider.

  Have tested audio keys in rythmbox and no result.

  F1 ? (question mark symbol on key) 0x3a 0xba
  F2 Brightness Down 0x3b 0xbb
  F3 Brightness Up 0x3c 0xbc
  F4 | Square |  (two lines on the outside of a square) perhaps a reference to a monitor    0x3d 0xbd
  F5 |<< (rewind?)   0x3e 0xbe
  F6 >|| (Play or pause) 0x3f 0xbf
  F7 Stop  0x40 0xc0
  F8 >>| (fast forward)  0x41 0xc1
  F9 Volume down 0x42 0xc2
  F10 volume up  0x43 0xc3

  Numbering changes for F11 F12
