Ok I've figured it out. Working from the discussion here: http://www .mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg01343.html
We need to add 3 new device IDs for the new generation macbooks (the id varies depending on whether the keyboard is ansi, iso, or jis) for the apple vendor ID, which is: "#define USB_VENDOR_ID_APPLE 0x05ac". I propose to add the following to hid-quirks.c #define USB_DEVICE_ID_APPLE_GEYSER5_ANSI 0x0230 /* i'm guessing this is correct, i need you to confirm this */ #define USB_DEVICE_ID_APPLE_GEYSER5_ISO 0x0231 #define USB_DEVICE_ID_APPLE_GEYSER5_JIS 0x0232 Corresponding entries will have to be made inside hid_blacklist[] in the same file (just a copy&paste of the GEYSER4 entries). This way older Macbook models will not be affected, and the new ones will work for all those device IDs. *** What I need from you: execute "lsusb -v" at the shell. And report the output for the block that contains: Bus 005 Device 003: ID 05ac:0230 Apple Computer, Inc. ... bInterfaceProtocol 1 Keyboard ... Note your ID might not be 05ac:0230. I've attached the block for mine for reference. The important line here is the device ID, and country code. For me it is: bCountryCode 33 US I'm guessing Scott's line will read: bCountryCode 13 International (ISO) or something similar. Once I've confirmed the device IDs with your help, I'll try to make a patch and submit it. We should also probably submit it upstream as this is not exclusive to Ubuntu. ** Attachment added: ""lsusb -v" output for Keyboard section" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14581184/keyboard.txt -- fn key doesn't work in hardy with macbook pro fourth generation (4,1) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/207127 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
