sh0t 2017-03-02 03:45:11
Yeah but F6 would not do anything
BluesKaj 2017-03-02 03:45:17
device )
BluesKaj 2017-03-02 03:45:26
device 0
BluesKaj 2017-03-02 03:45:56
you have to choose the device/card
BluesKaj 2017-03-02 03:46:24
then sudo alsactl store
sh0t 2017-03-02 03:47:29
for instance if i hit F2 i should get SYstem information
sh0t 2017-03-02 03:47:30
BUT
sh0t 2017-03-02 03:47:38
instead i get brightness increased
sh0t 2017-03-02 03:48:04
that's why i think when i hit f6 it gets intercepted by the wm
BluesKaj 2017-03-02 03:52:58

ducasse 2017-03-02 04:03:03
sh0t: you can find out if the wm/de intercepts it with xev. if xev does not print the keysym when you hit the key, it is intercepted.
sh0t 2017-03-02 04:03:51
thanks ducasse
sh0t 2017-03-02 04:03:53
!
ducasse 2017-03-02 04:04:28
sh0t: np :)
sh0t 2017-03-02 04:05:00
so xev prints stuff on the terminal when i hit
sh0t 2017-03-02 04:05:02
F6
ducasse 2017-03-02 04:05:27
sh0t: does it print the keysym?
ducasse 2017-03-02 04:06:16
sh0t: it should say something like 'keysym 0xffc3, F6' on the third line
sh0t 2017-03-02 04:06:48
mmm it says: KeymapNotify event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x0, keys: 2
sh0t 2017-03-02 04:07:00
and a bunch of 0s
ducasse 2017-03-02 04:07:12
sh0t: but no KeyPress event?
sh0t 2017-03-02 04:08:27
nope! Only focusOut, focus In, and KeymapNotify
ducasse 2017-03-02 04:08:34
sh0t: then it is intercepted
sh0t 2017-03-02 04:09:09
by the wm? or By let's say the alsamixer program?
ducasse 2017-03-02 04:09:39
sh0t: most likely by the wm
sh0t 2017-03-02 04:10:08
by the wm i take it cause F7 and F8 behave similarly and they increase/decrease the volume
sh0t 2017-03-02 04:10:25
allright thanks ducasse...
comptekki 2017-03-02 04:10:36

ducasse 2017-03-02 04:14:01
comptekki: it's a development release, problems are to be expected.
comptekki 2017-03-02 04:14:02
these issues seem to be problems in 16.x and previous also
comptekki 2017-03-02 04:15:09

BluesKaj 2017-03-02 04:33:58
sh0t, which audio chip do you have ?
sh0t 2017-03-02 04:36:09
BluesKaj, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24096420/
kosta7 2017-03-02 04:39:50
hello ubuntu
kosta7 2017-03-02 04:40:14
i've just cleaned up 3GB of old kernels
kosta7 2017-03-02 04:40:55
lately i have been changing kernels more often than I am changing shirts
k1l 2017-03-02 04:41:55
apt autoremove will do that automatically since 16.04
BluesKaj 2017-03-02 04:42:46
sh0t, sometimes after package upgrades in the audio section the snd-hda-intel driver is unloaded, sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel, will load the driver and a reboot is usually required
kosta7 2017-03-02 04:43:02
well that's exactly what I am doing, I am running 16.04 LTS, who knew there would be so many kernels on LTS
k1l 2017-03-02 04:43:58
kosta7: look at ubuntu.com/usn what security issues there are to be fixed.
BluesKaj 2017-03-02 04:44:21
kosta7, run sudo apt-get autoremove once aweek or so should help keep / cleaned up
sh0t 2017-03-02 04:44:29
BluesKaj, would I need to do that at every reboot?
