I can't get any acpi event or key press out of Fn+F5 on a X301 after
installing the Debian package linux-image-2.6.29-1-amd64 version 2.6.29-1
The weird thing is that I'm pretty sure I had it working up to
2.6.29-rc6. Which makes it entirely possible that this is just a kernel
config thing. I noticed that Debian now has disabled
CONFIG_ACPI_PROC_EVENT. Could this be related?
Or were there major changes to the thinkpad stuff bwteen 2.6.29-rc6 and
the final release?
I run acpid with a catch-all configuration like this:
bjorn@nemi:/tmp$ cat /etc/acpi/events/any
event=.*
action=/etc/acpi/logit.sh %e
bjorn@nemi:/tmp$ cat /etc/acpi/logit.sh
#!/bin/sh
echo `date`: $* >>/var/log/acpi-log
and the acpi-log now shows nothing when pressing Fn+F5. There is no
keypress reported by xev either.
Any hints are appreciated.
I also noticed that the Fn+F8 seems to have changed from toggling
pointer devices to reporting a key press. Not that it matters much to
me, as I've never used it. But some pointers on howto restore the
old functionality would be useful.
