So I think the discussion at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=524425 has finished.
A patch was initially committed... then rejected. It was concluded that the real solution is for the thinkpad-acpi kernel driver to create an ALSA mixer for the volume level. I agree with this. However, this isn't going to happen until 2.6.25 (at the earliest, and it seems a bit unlikely now). Would it be possible to get the patch implemented in the ubuntu package as a stop-gap solution for Hardy? -- Wrong handling of volume buttons on IBM Thinkpad notebooks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/51537 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
