Please install evtest and then run "sudo evtest" and then select the "Asus WMI hotkeys" device by typing its number followed by enter. After this reproduce the bug and see if the log shows KEY_BRIGHTNESSDOWN. Since you said you tried playing around with the quirks, I assume you can build your own kernel, please let me know if that is wrong. If this confirms the KEY_BRIGHTNESSDOWN events are coming from the "Asus WMI hotkeys" device, then please edit /lib/udev/hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb And search for "Asus WMI hotkeys", this should find this section: evdev:name:Asus WMI hotkeys:dmi:bvn*:bvr*:bd*:svnASUS*:pn*:* evdev:name:Eee PC WMI hotkeys:dmi:bvn*:bvr*:bd*:svnASUS*:pn*:* evdev:name:Asus Laptop extra buttons:dmi:bvn*:bvr*:bd*:svnASUS*:pn*:* KEYBOARD_KEY_6b=f21 # Touchpad Toggle KEYBOARD_KEY_7c=f20 # Remap micmute to f20 Change this to: evdev:name:Asus WMI hotkeys:dmi:bvn*:bvr*:bd*:svnASUS*:pn*:* evdev:name:Eee PC WMI hotkeys:dmi:bvn*:bvr*:bd*:svnASUS*:pn*:* evdev:name:Asus Laptop extra buttons:dmi:bvn*:bvr*:bd*:svnASUS*:pn*:* KEYBOARD_KEY_6b=f21 # Touchpad Toggle KEYBOARD_KEY_7c=f20 # Remap micmute to f20 KEYBOARD_KEY_20=unknown And then run "sudo udevadm hwdb --update" followed by "sudo udevadm trigger", that should filter out the spurious keypresses. If that helps, please run: cat /sys/class/dmi/id/modalias So that a proper DMI based quirk to only to the filtering on your model can be written. Regards, Hans
