Description Darko 2016-07-28 15:35:00 UTC

None of the hotkeys work. acpi_listen and showkey --keycodes respond only when Fn + F8 is pressed and this combination has identical keycode as key 'p', 25. If I try "modprobe asus-laptop", error is returned: modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'asus_laptop': No such device.
I don't know which logs and information could help, so please comment and I will provide them.

Additionaly, toshiba wmi hotkeys are loaded, which shouldn't even be loading on asus.

$ dmesg | grep toshiba -i
[    4.124696] input: Toshiba WMI hotkeys as /devices/virtual/input/input14
[    4.124999] toshiba_wmi: Toshiba WMI Hotkey Driver

toshiba-wmi patch

Hi there,

As a quick workaround try blacklisting the toshiba-wmi driver to prevent it from loading.

Also please test the attached patch to see if the driver is not loaded anymore.


Cheers
