Fixing the mute button on SL410

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Right now the mute button on the SL410 doesn't work properly. In order for the sound to be muted you need to press the mute button followed by one of the volume buttons (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/994274). But changing the keymap as follows fixes the issue.

The LED still doesn't work, but hey, at least mute works. The comments above it says that the "firmware may react very differently" if the keymap is changed. So is it okay to change the keymap? Would there be any side effects?
