XF86Eject doesn't work anymore on Mac keyboard
Last modified: 2009-10-16 13:53:18 UTC
Usually the eject button on Mac keyboards is opening the DVD drive. This doesn't work anymore as well as the other function keys (F10, F11, F12 for loudness control, etc.). This was still working with openSUSE 11.2 Milestone 8 and stopped working with RC1.
This is the xev output when I press the eject button: KeyPress event, serial 32, synthetic NO, window 0x4c00001, root 0x91, subw 0x0, time 365332, (97,83), root:(100,534), state 0x0, keycode 204 (keysym 0x1008ff2c, XF86Eject), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 bytes: XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes: XFilterEvent returns: False KeyRelease event, serial 32, synthetic NO, window 0x4c00001, root 0x91, subw 0x0, time 365332, (97,83), root:(100,534), state 0x0, keycode 204 (keysym 0x1008ff2c, XF86Eject), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 bytes: XFilterEvent returns: False
Seems the enitre keyboard handling got broken somehow :( Same as in bug #547565 (not specific to Mac, it's general) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 547565 ***
