Re: Dell Vostro V131: special hotkey not working

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

 



Hi again,

can anyone please help me debugging this issue? I'd like to get special key working. The "Dell instant launch manager" hotkey still doesn't generate anything.

I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 right now (kernel 3.13).

Thanks a lot in advance,
Peter
