$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version $ lspci -nnv -s 00:1f.4 | grep Subsystem $ evtest # when you press brightness key FWIK, it seems like the HP common issue if your system is preload with windows from HP factory then install the Linux distro. Since HP has a hotkey application which setting the EC to enter a special mode for this application (EC will send the different keycode). After you reinstall to other OS, the EC still in the special mode.

What works: Volume up/down/mute, Airplane mode What doesn't work: Brigtness up/down, microphone mute, fn-Keys indicator lights I already tried solutions regarding editing the Kernel Parameter acpi_osi in the grub config but can not get the keys to work. In case of screen brightness changing it using the desktop slider works. But it seems, that the keypress isn't recognized at all. Neither xev nor acpi_listen are showing events for screen brightness (fn+f3/f4) or microphone muting (fn+f8). Running showkey -k results in a keycode 465 pressed and released event for all three key combinations.
