Description Grzegorz Kossakowski 2008-05-19 21:28:15 UTC

As summary explains openSUSE completely ignores any controls of my laptop including audio control (volume setting, muting) and even power button! Yes, pushing power button has no effect on a system.

This is a major regression compared to openSUSE 10.3 where all keys (including audio) worked very well.

Comment 1 Timo Hoenig 2008-05-21 09:33:14 UTC

This is likely to need some additions for hal-info.  Will investigate.

Seife, Helmut.  You both are using HPs, what about the hotkeys on your laptops?  Are they working?

Comment 2 Helmut Schaa 2008-05-21 09:44:59 UTC

Wireless on/off works
Volume +/- works
Mute works
Touchpad on/off works
Presentation gives me an xevent

The only non-working button is the info-key

Comment 3 Timo Hoenig 2008-05-21 09:48:08 UTC

Thanks for the quick reply, Helmut.

Grzegorz, could you please run 'sleep 1; showkey -s' (as root) and then press the keys?  Do you see any events?

Comment 4 Timo Hoenig 2008-05-21 09:48:55 UTC

Lowering severity.

Comment 5 Grzegorz Kossakowski 2008-05-22 09:50:54 UTC

Yep I see following info:
grek-laptop:~ # sleep 1; showkey -s
kb mode was RAW
[ if you are trying this under X, it might not work
since the X server is also reading /dev/console ]

press any key (program terminates 10s after last keypress)...
0xe0 0x30 0xe0 0xb0
0xe0 0x2e 0xe0 0xae
0xe0 0x20 0xe0 0xa0
0xe0 0x24 0xe0 0xa4
0xe0 0x19 0xe0 0x99
0xe0 0x22 0xe0 0xa2
0xe0 0x10 0xe0 0x90
0x74 0xf4
0x5a 0xda
0xe0 0x5e 0xe0 0xde

The keys are pressed (in this order) are:
Volume +, Volume -, Mute, Stop, Next, Play/Pause, Prev, DVD, QuickPlay, Power button.

I hope this helps. Thanks for attention!

Comment 6 Timo Hoenig 2008-10-15 10:34:59 UTC

Sorry for the huge lag, Grzegorz.

Could you please let me know if this issue is still present?  I'd look for a similar machine in case you're still suffering from this issue.

Comment 7 Grzegorz Kossakowski 2008-10-16 11:13:22 UTC

Hi Timo,

Actually, some time ago I found out that all problems related to keys support appear in KDE4 only.

When I log into KDE3 everything works correctly. This looks like an issue with KDE4.

I don't have beta 2 of 11.1 but I've tested this with latest release of KDE4 (4.1.x) and 11.0. The result is still the same - no keys are working.

Comment 8 Timo Hoenig 2008-10-16 11:17:35 UTC

Ah, thanks for this information.  I think bug 382855 handles this KDE 4  issue.
