I have a Vaio FX401. I just made the Fn work. Before it just hang my
notebook. If this is your case too, then you should recompile the kernel
with the ACPI patches from sourceforge.net/projects/acpi. I run the
kernel 2.4.18 with that ACPI patches.
Then, you have to add few lines in the .xmodmap file, like that:
keycode 0xB0 = XF86AudioRaiseVolume
keycode 0xAE = XF86AudioLowerVolume
keycode 0xA0 = XF86AudioMute
keycode 0xDF = XF86ScreenSaver
I use fvwm2 as windows manager, then I add this in my ~/.fvwm2rc:
Key XF86AudioMute A N Exec exec '/usr/sbin/sound'
Key XF86AudioLowerVolume A N Exec exec '/usr/sbin/lowervolume'
Key XF86AudioRaiseVolume A N Exec exec '/usr/sbin/raisevolume'
Key XF86ScreenSaver A N Exec exec '/usr/bin/xscreensaver'
Where /usr/sbin/lowervolume is:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/aumix -v 100 -w -1
and /usr/sbin/raisevolume is:
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/aumix -v 100 -w +1
The /usr/sbin/sound is a script to mute and unmute the sound:
#!/bin/sh
if [ -f ~/.aumixtmp ] ; then
echo -n "Restoring volume to 40"
aumix -v 100 -w 40
rm ~/.aumixtmp
echo "."
exit 1
else
echo -n Muting
touch ~/.aumixtmp
aumix -v 0
echo "."
exit 1
fi
exit 0
it can be better, I know, but I am not good in scripts...
If you don't use fvwm2, well check in your window manager how you could
do some similar things... If you use icewm check at
http://www.gaugusch.at/vaio/ (there is a link there for kde too).
I hope it helps.
Good luck,
Ionel
