Bug Description
Binary package hint: tpb
After upgrading from Jaunty to Karmic, I recognized the following difference in Thinkpad buttons for my T61:
1. Mute, Volume up and Volume down buttons stop working
2. LCD bright/dark buttons work, but no on-screen indicators
3. Sleep button (F4) works as before
4. trackpoint/trackpad switching (F8) button works but previously not in Jaunty
2~4 are fine with me. It would be nice to investigate and fix the problem in 1.
thanks
To post a comment you must log in.
Confirmed on T42, the tpb package wont start with user permissions.
Try out "tpb -d" as user, nothing happens and the keys wont work without any osd reaction.
Then try "sudo tpb -d", now the keys are working and the osd shows all usage well.
The bug is aside the permissions for tpb, found no solution as above ugly workaround.
