Description KernelBug 2015-01-08 09:39:00 UTC

Hello,

I opened up this report over a year ago;

https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=67681

Someone that replied wasn't paying attention and I also got side tracked too with just looking at the video support, instead of always looking at the F2 key for WiFi not working.

This then was assigned to the wrong section for Video, and this is not just a video problem, so that is why I'm opening this bug report to hopefully get someone to see this and get that one going again, since no one seems to ever reply back to it.


THANK YOU!

Almost all worked fine only on 3.8x kernel! 
Since kernel-3.17 i'm lost fn+f2/f3/f4 too
Please fix this bug.
