sony_laptop and the Alt-key

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

 



Ok, that sounds wierd, but I retried it about 10 times, repeatable:

- stop X
- start gdm
- login into a gnome session
- open terminal
- type AltGr-q (German kbd) and I get -> @
- use Fn-F5 or Fn-F6 to adjust the brightness
- type AltGr-q and I get -> q

(same with all AltGr combinations: \ } ] [ { ~ on German kbds, that is bad)

This is independent of the power plugged in or not.

It *IS* depending on Gnome, so I guess gnome-power-manager or something
else popping up that brightness OSD is the culprit.

Anyone here having an idea where that might come from, and how to track
that down?

Best wishes

Norbert
