After installing Ubuntu 12.04 64bit i have the same problem as in Ubuntu 11.10 64bit but this time it can not be fixed the way i did in 11.10.
I have a Fujitsu Amilo PI 1505 laptop with FN+VolumeUp en Down keys but when i use them the system locks up because the key's keep repeating.
For 11.10 i had a fix available for evdev_drv.so but the code in 12.04 is changed so i can not apply the fix described in: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-974723.html
The fix was incorporating an extra filter which added a key_up event after the key_down.
But in the current source of evdev_drv.so (version 2.7.0) there is no such filter section.
WORKAROUND: Created file: /lib/udev/keymaps/force-release/fujitsu-amilo_pi-1505
containing:
0xAE #volume down
0xB0 #volume up
added udev rule for:
Vendor: FUJITSU SIEMENS
Product: AMILO Pi 1505
in file:
/lib/udev/rules.d/95-keyboard-force-release.rules
ENV{DMI_VENDOR}=="FUJITSU SIEMENS", ATTR{[dmi/id]product_name}=="AMILO Pi 1505", RUN+="keyboard-force-release.sh $devpath fujitsu-amilo_pi-1505"
I didn't test if common-volume-keys is sufficient, used for an allready existing udev rule. This file contains the same scan codes but written in lowercase. Confirmed by testing, adding my model 'AMILO Pi 1505' to the udev rule in the rule file '95-keyboard-force-release.rules':
ENV{DMI_VENDOR}=="FUJITSU SIEMENS", ATTR{[dmi/id]product_name}=="AMILO Si 1848+u|AMILO Xi 2428|AMILO Pi 1505", RUN+="keyboard-force-release.sh $devpath common-volume-keys"
Fixes my the problem to and is the better option.
