[Bug 59429] Re: Multimedia key partially working

[Yang Zhao]

This fixes the problem. However it's interesting to note that it takes
me about 31 steps to go from mute to full volume, but only 12 steps to
reduce to mute. The 2 keys change volume in different amount.

Subject: [Bug 59429] Re: Multimedia key partially working

I had the same problem and find this workaround (with Google help...) by commenting out the line beginning with :
"    key <I2F> {    [ XF86AudioRaiseVolume ] };"

in /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/inet, logitech_base section :

example : 
--------------------------------------------------------------

partial hidden alphanumeric_keys
xkb_symbols "logitech_base" {

    key <I01> {    [ XF86AudioMedia ] };
    key <I02> { [ XF86WWW ] };
    key <I10> { [ XF86AudioPrev ] };
......
    key <I22> { [ XF86AudioPlay, XF86AudioPause ] };
    key <I24> { [ XF86AudioStop ] };
    key <I2E> { [ XF86AudioLowerVolume ] };
//    key <I2F> {    [ XF86AudioRaiseVolume ] };
    key <I30> { [ XF86AudioRaiseVolume ] };
    key <I32> { [ XF86HomePage ] };
    key <I3B> { [ XF86New ] };
......
};

--------------------------------------------------------------
After a X11 restart, everything is fine.
The same problem occurs in dapper and edgy.

It seems there is two keys defined for the same action... I2F and I30...
