The India model has yet another layout, with a full numeric keypad that also includes Home.

Again event_id 29, I really think we need a patch to just treat event_id 29 the same as HPWMI_BEZEL_BUTTON. And we could/should map 0x21a7 to KEY_FN_ESC, then userspace could potentially do something with this if it wants. > Fn-F2 / Fn-F3 (backlight down/up): > * Sends proper events via ACPI Video. but also does something on atkbd: Good. > * atkbd serio0: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0xab on isa0060/serio0). > * atkbd serio0: Use 'setkeycodes e02b <keycode>' to make it known. Ideally we would silence these by adding a hwdb entry mapping them to be ignored, see: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/master/hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb#L333 (the Dell Inspiron 1520 and Latitude 2110 entry in case the line numbers change due to new commits) for an example of this. Note please group any new 60-keyboard.hwdb entries for this together with the already existing HP entries. > Fn-F4 (keyboard backlight toggle): > * Toggle seems to happen in firmware > * Nothing on hp-wmi > * Nothing on any event devices Likely there is some firmware interface for this, but possibly we first need to make some call to tell the firmware that we are capable of dealing with this. Anyways kbd backlight support (including registering a: /sys/class/leds/hp_foo::kbd_backlight/ LED-class device for this so that e.g. the GNOME3 integration for this can work is something which is currently not supported at all. So way more then just detecting the key-press is missing and this really is a completely separate project. > Fn-F11 (touchpad lock): > * Locking works (touchpad is frozen while LED is on) So this is handled in firmware. > * From unlocked: hp-wmi: Unknown key code - 0x21a9.

Nice, these should be mapped to KEY_F22 for when the touchpad gets turned on, so use F22 for 0x121a9 I guess) and to KEY_F23 for when the touchpad gets turned off. This will make at least GNOME3 show OSD notifications showing that the touchpad is on/off like it does for volume mute/unmute. I realize that using F22/F23 for this may look a but weird, but userspace has re-purposed a bunch of the high F-key numbers to avoid the key-codes higher then 247 not being supported in X11 problem. I know about the following re-purposed F2# keys for this: F20: mic-mute toggle F21: touchpad on/off toggle (to be handled by software) F22: touchpad on (notification for this being handled in firmware) F23: touchpad off (notification for this being handled in firmware) You can see these being re-defined like this in: /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/inet (search for FK20) > Fn-F12 (windows key lock): > * No LED, but the lock works. > * From unlocked: hp-wmi: Unknown key code - 0x21a4 (Now locked.) > * From locked: hp-wmi: Unknown key code - 0x121a4 (Now unlocked.) > * Sends EV_MSC/MSC_SCAN (value 0x21a4 or 0x121a4) to userspace. > * Sends EV_KEY/KEY_UNKNOWN down and up immediately (no hold or repeat). Hmm, can you explain what this does does it disable the Windows (aka meta/super) key to avoid accidentally pressing it ? Regards, Hans
