[Bug 569562] Re: HP G62 "media player" hotkey is dead

 

Andrei Kouznetsov, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't
been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc3

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  HP G62 "media player" hotkey is dead

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I am using HP G62 with Ubuntu 10.04. My hotkeys "mail", "internet", "calculator" work perfectly. However, "media player" does not work. It does not generate any sequence. I tried
  1. showkey
  2. Preferences > keyboard shortcuts
  3. xev

  all these methods do not capture the key. Finally, I noticed that my "internet" key is recognized as "home" key:
  scan code: 0xB2   key code: homepage # should be www browser

  If you need more information, please, let me know

  Andrei
