No, I did not get any error or warning. I try to describe what happened - just in case, I did not see that something went wrong.
After preparing sources etc. I - manually checked hid-quirks.c to make sure the sources are modified according to the patch. - replaced the Makefile and ran make - I attach the output to this posting. - replaced the three .ko files in /var/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/hid/usbhid by those just built. I don't know how to test those new .ko files for anything. I looked at their sizes: usbkbd.ko became about 50 byte larger, others remain at same size. And I ran diff, what stated that all three files differ from their original files. After rebooting, I switched to a text console and tested all special keys with showkey. Like before patching, keys "1" to "5" and the asterisk showed scancodes. No other special key did. I took a look into dmesg and searched for anything that sounds like usb keyboards to me. I put the snippet in the attached file, too. ** Attachment added: "output_dmesg.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/20765233/output_dmesg.txt -- [intrepid] REGRESSION: multimedia keys no longer working https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/281993 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
