Hi Justin, the disassembled DSDT always helps as a first step. 1. install "iasl" or get and compile the source: https://www.acpica.org/downloads/unix_source_code.php 2. cp /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/DSDT dsdt.aml 3. iasl -d dsdt.aml This creates a "dsdt.dsl" file. This is the interesting one. Furthermore, check the kernel bugzilla if there isn't a similar bug somewhere already. http://bugzilla.kernel.org This article is also good literature how WMI drivers work: http://lwn.net/Articles/391230/ Also check for latest /lib/udev/keymaps/ and /lib/udev/keymaps/force-release/. On this page this helped e.g. on a Samsung laptop: http://blog.nonobis.nl/?p=11 Cheers, Sebastian On 23.11.2012 20:47, Justin Chudgar wrote: > I have an Acer Aspire 5733 that is having issues with: > - <fn>+<brightness/volume/suspend/etc.> key combos not working > - screen not resuming when unplugging/replugging a system while system > continues operating > > Could someone please help me determine how to triage these and direct me > on what info the maintainer needs from me. > > Thank you. > > ##### Excerpt from lshw ##### > description: Notebook > product: Aspire 5733 (Calpella_CRB) > vendor: Acer > version: V1.07 > serial: > NXRN5AA00221703D023400 > > width: 64 > bits > > capabilities: smbios-2.6 dmi-2.6 > vsyscall32 > configuration: boot=normal chassis=notebook family=Intel_Mobile > sku=Calpella_CRB > uuid=F5E6A1B5-81FF-11E1-A5D0-DC0EA1AC38D5 > > > *-core > > description: Motherboard > product: Aspire 5733 > vendor: Acer > physical id: 0 > version: V1.07 > serial: Base Board Serial Number > slot: Base Board Chassis Location > *-firmware > description: BIOS > vendor: Acer > physical id: 0 > version: V1.07 > date: 11/07/2011 > size: 1MiB > capacity: 1472KiB > capabilities: pci upgrade shadowing cdboot bootselect edd > int13floppynec int13floppytoshiba int13floppy360 int13floppy1200 > int13floppy720 int13floppy2880 int9keyboard int10video acpi usb > biosbootspecification > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe platform-driver-x86" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
