Bug Description
This report is specific to Intrepid Beta amd64 desktop.
The Stop playback hotkey worked in Gutsy and Hardy, and has ceased working in Intrepid. The expected action is that it will stop playing audio. It no longer does this in Intrepid. The information provided in this report is relative to: https:/
Additional information is provided relative to: https:/
These are notes on the HotkeyResearch wiki page methods:
1. Method 1. Cannot use. The Keyboard Shortcuts no longer provide magic numbers.
2. Method 2. This method sucessfully provided information which is attached to this comment (hotkey-log.txt). Although this method did provide information, X no longer accepted keystrokes and it was necessary to logout using the mouse and log back in. hotkey-setup was properly restarted as directed, so this is probably a bug in an of itself.
3. Method 3. Cannot use. /var/log/acpid is no longer present. I was able to determine an acpi event was not generated when pressing the key by using acpi_listen.
4. Method 4. Did not provide information. Pressing the key did not generate reportable key release events using xev per the directions.
