Bug Description
It's back. The mute button on the Thinkpad T61 has stopped working. I upgraded to hardy today from Gutsy (were it did work) to do testing. I'm running on kernel 2.6.24-3. My thinkpad has the latest firmware that fixed this issue in gutsy. Thinkpad ACPI reports my firmware as:
ThinkPad BIOS 7LETA7WW (2.07 ), EC 7KHT24WW-1.08
Which is the latest as of 12/06/07.
So the problem is either the version of Thinkpad ACPI included in the kernel. or an ACPI script. But I'm not sure yet.
