Comment 63 for bug 295251

More info re. the Samsung Q45: the keys for brightness control are recognised but there is no release:

This is the output from "xev | sed -n 's/^.*state \([0-9].*\), keycode *\([0-9]\+\) *\(.*\), .*$/keycode \2 = \3, state = \1/p'" :

keycode 233 = (keysym 0x1008ff02, XF86MonBrightnessUp), state = 0x0
keycode 232 = (keysym 0x1008ff03, XF86MonBrightnessDown), state = 0x0
