[Pkg-acpi-devel] Bug#701206: acpid: Mic mute button on Thinkpad X230 is not recognized

[Marek Elias]

thanks for your reply.

I did the changed you suggested and rebuilt the acpid package.
Now I can see the events and run scripts with it.

But I still can't see the events in xev anyway. Maybe this is caused by
too old version of xorg (I use squeeze).

So you are telling me that acpid is now obsolete and things should be
done in some other way? I don't use KDE nor GNOME. I use fluxbox and I
used to configure some of my keys through acpid. And I like it, when the
keys work in console as well as in X.

Does acpid has something to do with forwarding events to X? Or X should
get the events itself?

When I will have a scripts for this button, I should probably send them
to package acpi-support, am I right?

bye,
