KEY - status SLEEP - OK WIFI - OK BRIGHTNESS_DOWN - no output in xev (but works fine) BRIGHTNESS_UP - no output in xev (but works fine) BACKLIGHT (on/off) - no MappingNotify event, serial 62, synthetic NO, window 0x0, request MappingKeyboard, first_keycode 8, count 248 KeyPress event, serial 62, synthetic NO, window 0x2200001, root 0x91, subw 0x0, time 554294, (313,107), root:(314,150), state 0x0, keycode 253 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 bytes: XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes: XFilterEvent returns: False KeyRelease event, serial 62, synthetic NO, window 0x2200001, root 0x91, subw 0x0, time 554294, (313,107), root:(314,150), state 0x0, keycode 253 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 bytes: XFilterEvent returns: False DISPLAY - OK TOUCHPAD - OK MUTE - no MappingNotify event, serial 72, synthetic NO, window 0x0, request MappingKeyboard, first_keycode 8, count 248 FocusOut event, serial 72, synthetic NO, window 0x2200001, mode NotifyGrab, detail NotifyAncestor FocusIn event, serial 72, synthetic NO, window 0x2200001, mode NotifyUngrab, detail NotifyAncestor KeymapNotify event, serial 72, synthetic NO, window 0x0, keys: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 VOLUME_DOWN - OK VOLUME_UP - no FocusOut event, serial 77, synthetic NO, window 0x2200001, mode NotifyGrab, detail NotifyAncestor FocusIn event, serial 77, synthetic NO, window 0x2200001, mode NotifyUngrab, detail NotifyAncestor KeymapNotify event, serial 77, synthetic NO, window 0x0, keys: 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 19 (LXDE Spin) fully updated How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install + update (including testing) F19 (LXDE Spin) 2. Test Fn keys. 3. Actual results: As above Expected results: All Fn keys should have proper description/function, that will allow map them to proper program/function in system. Additional info:
On Fedora 18 (Live CD LXDE) only Brightness_{UP,DOWN} and BACKLIGHT wasn't working. So I think it is regression.
Ok, the problem is related to this module: "asus_nb_wmi" it isn't automatically loaded by system. If you load it all Fn keys work like a charm. (Fn + {F1, F2, F5, F6, F7, F8, F9, F10, F11, F12, T, C, V}) So, currently the bug is that asus_nb_wmi isn't loaded by default.
*********** MASS BUG UPDATE ************** We apologize for the inconvenience. There is a large number of bugs to go through and several of them have gone stale. Due to this, we are doing a mass bug update across all of the Fedora 19 kernel bugs. Fedora 19 has now been rebased to 3.11.1-200.fc19. Please test this kernel update and let us know if you issue has been resolved or if it is still present with the newer kernel. If you experience different issues, please open a new bug report for those.
Fixed.
Thank you for letting us know.
