(Get the code!)
Hi there,
I've looked at the key code sequence and it appears that the current sony-laptop driver in Hardy does not support it for your model type. What is more curious is that I cannot see how it worked for feisty or gutsy kernels in the sonypi.c driver. Since this is reported as a regression, if you have an older system still installed that works with the eject key, can you do the following on that working system:
sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.
and add
options sonypi verbose=2
reboot and press the key several times and send the dmesg output.
This way I can see where the sonypi and the newer sony-laptop drivers differ in their handling of the eject key.
Thank you.
