[Debian-eeepc-devel] osd

[Hans-J. Ullrich]

Hi Ben, 

I can confirm this behaviour, too. Some day, soon after change to libnotify-bin 
(but not WITH the change to libnotify-bin!)m OSD did not work any more.

To specify it more exactly: some osd messages do still appear, such as the bar 
when Fn+volume up or volume down are pressed, but I am not sure, these depend 
on eeepc-scripts and libnotify. As I am using KDE, there might be KDE-
specials, which might also create osd-messages.

What I can confirm: Fn + space , Fn + brightness and the key for disabling 
touchpad do never show an osd message.

This behaviour appears with or without "acpi_osi=Linux". In my case I have to 
use "acpi_osi=Linux", as my EEEPC 1005 HGO needs this (eeepc-wmi is not 
supported by my hardware, because the vendors kept the specs secret).

If you wonder, why I filed no bugreport: This is easy to explain. As I seemed 
to be the only user in the world with this problem, I did not want to waste 
your ressources in this work for a single person. :) 

As it looks now, other people have too, maybe a bug might be opened?

Thanks for the work and have a nice weekend! 

Best regards


Hans
