[Bug 1101657] Re: Microsoft 7000 My Favourite Keys 1-5 not working, only working on 4000 (of which I have both)

 

j.p.hillier, thank you for your comments. Could you please confirm this
issue exists with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images
are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ . If
the issue remains, please just make a comment to this.

If reproducible, could you also 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-rc6

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:
  Microsoft 7000 My Favourite Keys 1-5 not working, only working on 4000
  (of which I have both)

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  (kernel-bug-exists-upstream - :~$ uname -r
  3.8.0-030800rc4-generic - updated with new info due to request by another user)

  I get this when running sudo /lib/udev/findkeyboards :
  USB keyboard: input/event2
  USB keyboard: input/event3
  USB keyboard: input/js0
  USB keyboard: input/mouse0

  using:
  sudo /lib/udev/keymap -i input/event3

  the zoom + and - show up as in another bug as posted here
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/udev/+bug/356075

  scan code: 0xC022D key code: zoomin
  scan code: 0xC022E key code: zoomout

  but the only other keys that do not show up are extra media
  programmable buttons 1 2 3 4 5

  of which on a previous Microsoft 4000 which is the same keyboard but wired USB work fine under:
  keyboard>shortcuts>navigation>
  switch to work space 1 = Launch5
  switch to work space 2 = Launch6
  switch to work space 3 = Launch7
  switch to work space 4 = Launch8
  switch to work space 5 = Launch9

  I have 5 desk top spaces in compiz cubed, so that in the previous
  Microsoft 4000 keyboard pressing 1 2 3 4 5 would actually just go
  directly spinning to that desk top, which was obviously very useful.
  None the less the buttons do not work on the new Wireless 7000 version
  and doesn't even register with sudo /lib/udev/keymap -i input/event4
  (different from the original question post, I have a different mouse
  plugged in at present)

  Here are the results comparing the 2 keyboards first off the 4000 and 2nd the 7000:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1101657/+attachment/3919556/+files/log

  As you can see in the 7000 wireless version there is an extra F13 as
  183 does not exist in the 4000 wired edition.
