 |
|
Hi *.
I cannot make five Fn+F{1..12} keys to work in my new Asus UX331UAL. Seven works fine. They are detected by xbindkeys (XF86…) and some of them by acpid (acpi_listen).
- Fn+F1 (sleep)
- Fn+F3/F4 (keyboard backlit)
- Fn+F9 (touchpad toggle)
- Fn+F10/11/12 (volume/mute)
Keys that do not work:
- Fn+F2 (flight mode)
- Fn+F5/6 (screen brightness)
- Fn+F7 (turn off display)
- Fn+F8 (presentation mode)
They do not generate events for xev, xbindkeys -k or acpi_listen. None of the /dev/input/event* devices prints anything. Any ideas?

Kernel params: video=inteldrmfb:mode=1920x1080 vt.default_utf8=1 acpi_osi= acpi=on elevator=noop rootflags=discard intel_iommu=on kvm-intel.nested=1 quiet |

Very likely, the kernel doesn't support this laptop's kernel yet. I had a similar issue on an ASUS ROG VM703 and had to hack the kernel to add my laptop to it.
See https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/6/14/831
My patch enables some but not all keys (I was mostly interested in getting media and brightness keys working), and addresses this specific laptop, so it will definitely not work for you. Just showing that the cause is very likely that the kernel does not support it.
The keyboard does show up as a USB device, so follow mbar's advice, find it with lsusb, and then check the kernel source to see if it is supported. |

Nope, keyboard doesn't show up as the USB device.

This laptop is definitely not like my previous ones. Instead of USB it fancies I2C or PCI-E. Even such simple thing as microSD card reader uses PCI-E line (rtsx_pci driver). |

| Hmm, Ubuntu Live supports those keys (brightness for example). So it's definitely up there somewhere. |

Then look at the difference between ubuntu and gentoo .config as well as the modules loaded, and acpi scripts. It's in one of those, or maybe a combination.

Difference between .configs will be huge. No way to find that one tiny line that makes a difference if I cannot find it already in menuconf.
ACPI scripts have nothing to do with this because acpi_listen (that prints pure events) shows keypresses on Ubuntu but not on Gentoo. So it's related to the driver. |

I would look at the difference between ACPI setting in the config files, that's more than likely where you'll find the "key"
