Comment 0 for bug 291612

System:
Zepto Notebook/Laptop
Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex by "sudo update-manager -d"

On pressing the "Multimediakey" for volume, System crashes.
It seems that the button is working, but the release of the button isn't notified.

This is what xev says:

I have to restart X after Using the Volume-buttons.
The mapping seems right, but there must be a bug in the evdev package.
