What model laptop are you trying to run this on ?
Toshiba Tecra M2-S530 This worked until the update of 7/14. Still 'broken'.
> toshiba_acpi: Using generic hotkey driver Bzzzt! Wrong answer:-) Please build with CONFIG_ACPI_HOTKEY=n (the default in 2.6.13) This EXPERIMENTAL driver is still under development and should not yet be shipped as part of Fedora.
*confused*. This bug is filed against rawhide/FC5, and comment #1 suggests you're using those kernels. Yet in those kernels... # CONFIG_ACPI_HOTKEY is not set and its been this way since July 13th, which is roughly when that option appeared iirc. I'm guessing you're testing this on FC4 kernels now ? (Which are broken, I'll fix it in the next update).
No, I'm testing this on Rawhide kernels. Current running one is 2.6.12-1.1451_FC5 (still fails with messages as in #1). (I am downlownloading 2.6.12-1.1452_FC5 now.) grep HOTKEY /boot/config*1451* # CONFIG_ACPI_HOTKEY is not set July 13 is roughly when this stopped working. What additional info can I provide to help?
This started working again this morning with 2.6.12-1.1492_FC5. Didn't see anything in the posted changelog; was this fixed in 2.6.13-rc6-git9?
looks like it. there were a bunch of acpi hotkey fixes there.
