LED Stat Problem, Display brightness, resolution

Asked by sebbo

I'm using an HP Elitebook with Quicklunch Buttons. These buttons do not have any Keycodes bound to them(xev). Especialy the mute button shows wrong stats. e.g. if my system is mutet it calls me that my sound is on etc. Fedora do not make this kind of trouble.

Next, Ubuntu is not recognize that there is a lightsensor in my computer. The Buttons to change my display brightness are "brocken" and i can't change my display resolution.

There is an alsa backport in the repos that will fix the problem with the mute key. The WEB key and the touchpad key are not detected by xev I can confirm that.

Can you help with this problem?
