what is the microphone mute key on this machine? Fn+F8 or something elese?

And please use sudo showkey -s to catch the scancode of this key.

Thanks.

Keystroke cannot be detected by xev, but it shows:
keycode 465 press
keycode 465 release
from "sudo showkey -k"

This system has been recalled by OEM at 10 July 2014
I heard that it will be back, but not sure when.

Therefore I can't tell what's the combination, but according to those pictures I found on the Internet, I think it's Fn+F8

@cypressyew,

Could you please use sudo showkey -s instead of showkey -k to catch the scancode? scancode is more important to solve this problem.

This happens also on a ZBook 15.

This is what showkeys outputs when I press F8, Fn-F8, Ctrl-C

$ sudo showkey -s

$ sudo showkey -k

Fn-F8 doesn't do anything in showkey -s, it displays the 465 events in showkey -k

I'm on 12.04 LTS with the latest HWE kernel (almost, I should reboot to start using the 3.13.0-32.57~precise1 that came with the updates days ago).

Please follow below steps and redo the test under ubuntu 14.04:

generate a file named 60-hp-mic-mute-hotkey.hwdb and place the file at /etc/udev/hwdb.d/

echo the content below into the 60-hp-mic-mute-hotkey.hwdb:
keyboard:dmi:bvn*:bvr*:bd*:svnHewlett-Packard*:pn*:pvr*
KEYBOARD_KEY_81=f20

Then run the command below to update the udev database:
sudo udevadm hwdb -u

then re-test mic mute function on this machine or use showkey -k to test

If it is ubuntu 12.04.4:

a simple way to test is edit /lib/udev/keymaps/hewlett-packard, change the line:
0x81 fn_esc
to
0x81 f20

#13

Also have this issue with an HP zBook 15 G2

Performed the steps in #11

Alas, no effect

sudo showkey -k # continues to show keycode 465 pressed and released

The key has an embedded indicator light which does not change state.

I note that KEYBOARD_KEY_81 already has a rule defined in the Hewlett Packard section of /lib/udev/hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb which specifies it to be fn_esc. It also expresses the opinion that fn+f8 is the "battery" key

keyboard:dmi:bvn*:bvr*:bd*:svnHewlett-Packard*:pn*:pvr*
KEYBOARD_KEY_81=fn_esc
KEYBOARD_KEY_89=battery # Fn+F8

One thing I don't understand is the relationship between keycode and KEYBOARD_KEY ; how does 465 relate to which KEYBOARD_KEY you use?

@Adrian,

If it has /lib/udev/hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb on your machine, it seems the ubuntu version on your machine is at least 14.04, so please follow the steps in the comment #10 instead of #11.

This bug was fixed in the package systemd - 218-10ubuntu1

---------------
systemd (218-10ubuntu1) vivid; urgency=medium

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * Merge with Debian unstable. Remaining Ubuntu changes:
    - Hack to support system-image read-only /etc, and modify files in
      /etc/writable/ instead.
    - Keep our much simpler udev maintainer scripts (all platforms must
      support udev, no debconf).
    - initramfs init-top: Drop $ROOTDELAY, we do that in a more sensible way
      with wait-for-root. Will get applicable to Debian once Debian gets
      wait-for-root in initramfs-tools.
    - initramfs init-bottom: If LVM is installed, settle udev,
      otherwise we get missing LV symlinks. Workaround for LP #1185394.
    - Add debian/udev.lvm2.init: Dummy SysV init script to satisfy insserv
      dependencies to "lvm2" which is handled with udev rules in Ubuntu.
    - Provide shutdown fallback for upstart. (LP: #1370329)
    - debian/extra/ifup@.service: Additionally run for "auto" class. We don't
      really support "allow-hotplug" in Ubuntu at the moment, so we need to
      deal with "auto" devices appearing after "/etc/init.d/networking start"
      already ran. (LP: #1374521) Also, check if devices are actually defined
      in /etc/network/interfaces as we don't use Debian's net.agent.
    - ifup@.service: Drop dependency on networking.service (i. e.
      /etc/init.d/networking), and merely ensure that /run/network exists.
      This avoids unnecessary dependencies/waiting during boot and dependency
      cycles if hooks wait for other interfaces to come up (like ifenslave
      with bonding interfaces). (LP: #1414544)
    - Add Get-RTC-is-in-local-time-setting-from-etc-default-rc.patch: In
      Ubuntu we currently keep the setting whether the RTC is in local or UTC
      time in /etc/default/rcS "UTC=yes|no", instead of /etc/adjtime.
      (LP: #1377258)
    - Put session scopes into all cgroup controllers. This makes unprivileged
      user LXC containers work under systemd. (LP: #1346734)
    - Lower Breaks: to plymouth version which has the udev inotify fix in
      Ubuntu.
    - Lower libappamor1 dep to the Ubuntu version where it moved to /lib.
    - Make failure of boot-and-services NSpawn.test_boot non-fatal for now.
      This currently fails when being triggered by Jenkins, but is totally
      unreproducible when running this manually on the exact same machine.

    Upgrade fixes, keep until 16.04 LTS release:
    - systemd Conflicts/Replaces/Provides systemd-services.
    - Remove obsolete systemd-logind upstart job.
    - Clean up obsolete /etc/udev/rules.d/README.

* ifup@.service: Fix syntax error. (LP: #1421556, #1420601)

  [ Didier Roche ]
  * Add systemd-fsckd multiplexer and feed its output to plymouth. This
    provides an aggregate progress report of running file system checks and
    also allows cancelling them with ^C.
    (LP: #1316796; Closes: #775093, #758902)

systemd (218-10) experimental; urgency=medium

  * Pull latest keymaps from upstream git. (LP: #1334968, #1409721)
  * rules: Fix by-path of mmc RPMB partitions and don't blkid them. Avoids
    kernel buffer I/O errors and timeouts. (LP: #1333140...

  * When booting with systemd-bootchart, default to run systemd rather than
    /sbin/init (which might not be systemd). (LP: #1417059)
  * boot-and-services autopkgtest: Add CgroupsTest to check cgroup
    creation/cleanup behaviour. This reproduces #777601 and verifies the fix
    for it.

systemd (218-9) experimental; urgency=medium

[ Martin Pitt ]
  * debian/tests/logind: With dropped systemd-logind-launch we don't have a
    visible /sys/fs/cgroup/systemd/ any more under cgmanager. So adjust the
    test to check /proc/self/cgroup instead.
  * Add unit-config autopkgtest to check systemd unit/sysv init enabling and
    disabling via systemctl. This also reproduces #777613.
  * systemctl: Always install/enable/disable native units, even if there is a
    corresponding SysV script and we call update-rc.d; while the latter
    handles WantedBy=, it does not handle Alias=. (Closes: #777613)
  * cgroup: Don't trim cgroup trees created by someone else, just the ones
    that systemd itself created. This avoids cleaning up empty cgroups from
    e.g. LXC. (Closes: #777601)
  * Don't parse /etc/mtab for current mounts, but /proc/self/mountinfo. If the
    former is a file, it's most likely outdated on boot, leading to race
    conditions and unmounts during boot. (LP: #1419623)

[ Michael Biebl ]
  * Explicitly disable the features we don't want to build for those with
    autodetection. This ensures reliable build results in dirty build
    environments.
  * Disable AppArmor support in the udeb build.
  * core: Don't fail to run services in --user instances if $HOME is missing.
    (Closes: #759320)

[ Didier Roche ]
  * default-display-manager-generator: Avoid unnecessary /dev/null symlink and
    warning if there is no display-manager.service unit.

systemd (218-8) experimental; urgency=medium

[ Martin Pitt ]
  * boot-and-services autopkgtest: Ensure that there are no failed units,
    except possibly systemd-modules-load.service (as that notoriously fails
    with cruft in /etc/modules).
  * Revert "input" system group creation in systemd.postinst from 218-7. It's
    already done in udev.postinst.
  * ifup@.service: Revert checking for existance of ifupdown config for that
    interface, net.agent already does that.
  * Drop Also-redirect-to-update-rc.d-when-not-using-.service.patch; not
    necessary any more with the current version (mangle_names() already takes
    care of this).
  * Merge into Add-support-for-rcS.d-init-scripts-to-the-sysv-gener.patch:
    - Do-not-order-rcS.d-services-after-local-fs.target-if.patch, as it
      partially reverts the above, and is just fixing it.
    - Map-rcS.d-init-script-dependencies-to-their-systemd-.patch as it's just
      adding some missing functionality for the same purpose.
  * Merge Run-update-rc.d-defaults-before-update-rc.d-enable-d.patch into
    Make-systemctl-enable-disable-call-update-rc.d-for-s.patch as the former
    is fixing the latter and is not an independent change.
  * Drop Launch-logind-via-a-shell-wrapper.patch and systemd-logind-launch
    wrapper. The only remaining thing that we need from it is to create
    /run/systemd/, move that into the D-BUS service file directly.
  * /lib/lsb/init-functions.d/40-systemd: Avoid deadlocks during bootup and
    shutdown. DHCP/ifupdown and similar hooks which call "/etc/init.d/foo
    reload" can easily cause deadlocks, since the synchronous wait plus
    systemd's normal behaviour of transactionally processing all dependencies
    first easily causes dependency loops. Thus during boot/shutdown operate
    only on the unit and not on its dependencies, just like SysV behaves.
    (Closes: #777115, LP: #1417010)
  * Only start logind if dbus is installed. This fixes the noisy startup
    failure in environments without dbus, such as LXC containers or servers.
    (part of #772700)
  * Add getty-static.service unit which starts getty@.service on tty 2 to 6 if
    dbus is not installed, and hence logind cannot auto-start them on demand.
    (Closes: #772700)

[ Michael Biebl ]
  * Update insserv-generator and map $x-display-manager to
    display-manager.service, following the recent change in sysv-generator.
    This avoids creating references to a no longer existing
    x-display-manager.target unit.

I've got an HP EliteBook 820 G2 with the same Fn+F8 key and indicator for mic mute. I get the same results as the OP with showkey -k and -s.

Is there something I need to do to apply the fix for this? I'm afraid I'm not quite sure how to do the steps in #10.

Is there anything else I can do to help with this bug?
