Launching "dbus-monitor --system" and pressing the button gives signal sender=:1.12 -> dest=(null destination) serial=2054 path=/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/platform_i8042_i8042_KBD_port_logicaldev_input; interface=org.freedesktop.Hal.Device; member=Condition string "ButtonPressed" string "coffee"
In gnome-screensaver/src/gs-listener-dbus.c there is a hard-coded(!) handler for the "coffee" button which instruct gnome-screensaver (i.e. itself) to lock the screen. Apparently, unrelated buttons are mapped by HAL to the "coffee" button. E.g. I have the problem with my Cherry CyMotion master linux keyboard, when I press the "Copy" key. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/377175 Title: Volume Up button locks screen -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
