Description Vaclav Ehrlich 2011-11-10 11:53:55 UTC
Filed from caserun (https://tcms.engineering.redhat.com/run/30554/#caserun_748807)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

xorg : 1.10.4
kernel : 2.6.32-217.el6.x86_64

Steps to Reproduce: 

 1. Select the System-Preferences-Keyboard Shortcuts
 2. For each media key on the laptop:
     1. Locate the appropriate action in the Keyboard Shortcuts window
     2. Assign the media key to that action by following the onscreen
        directions

 3. Press all media keys.


Actual results: 
Mute microphone button can't be assigned to any Shortcut.

When xev is used this button raise this event :

KeyRelease event, serial 37, synthetic NO, window 0x4600001,
    root 0xc2, subw 0x0, time 12872612, (168,-12), root:(174,117),
    state 0x10, keycode 248 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
    XFilterEvent returns: False


Expected results:
Verify that all media keys can be mapped.
All media keys do what they are mapped to do.

Since RHEL 6.2 External Beta has begun, and this bug remains
unresolved, it has been rejected as it is not proposed as
exception or blocker.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the
next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Comment 5 Suzanne Logcher 2012-02-14 23:20:05 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated

ask your support representative to propose this request, if
appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux. If you would like it considered as an
exception in the current release, please ask your support
representative.
