thanks for urho for this post
Bluetooth, Multimedia Button and other (for example cpu`s temperature, fan policy etc.) (Hardy, Lucid and Maverick)
In Maverick you don't need omnibook-kernel-module to make bluetooth work.
You must install omnibook kernel module (Only in Hardy). Howto: To follow up on getting bluetooth to work on Ubuntu Hardy, I did this:
1) visit this site, and add the Debian sid repository
http://packages.kirya.net/debian/pool/main/o/omnibook/
it is not necessary to add the source repository.
1a) refresh synaptic, and add the package
omnibook-source
2) use module-assistant to build the kernel module (but first, exit synaptic)
sudo m-a a-i omnibook-source
(you have to work out how to get module-assistant working yourself. It is a package; you can find it in Synaptic. Make sure you install all recommended dependencies. Try installing build-essential as well) Now we can configure omnibook kernel module.
1) we need to make sure the module loads at startup
so edit the file /etc/modules
sudo vi /etc/modules
and add the line
omnibook
at the end
2) and we need to get it working so make a file called omnibook in /etc/modprobe.d
and in this file put one line
I DID'T FOUND ANY VALUE ECTYPE THAT CAN ENABLE ALL FNKEY AND MULTIMEDIA KEY TOGHETER
STILL I CAN'T ENABLE FN+1, FN+2 AND FN+SPACE
CURRENT YOU CAN ENABLE ONLY ALL MULTIMEDIA KEY(a)
OR ENABLE ALL FNKEY (FN+F2, FN+F8 AND FN+F9) (b) (IF YOU CHOOSE THIS INTERNET KEY AND MUSIC KEY WILL BE DISABLED)
(a)
options omnibook ectype=12
Now we have bluetooth and full support of phoenix bios. And we can set up multimedia button, because it`s now visible.
I. open go to system, administration and system log.
II. press multimedia button.
III. in message tab you should see something like this
Sep 10 12:14:37 xxx-laptop kernel: [ 4344.641796] atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0x93 on isa0060/serio0).
Sep 10 12:14:37 xxx-laptop kernel: [ 4344.641807] atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e013 <keycode>' to make it known.
IV. open gnome-terminal and run this command
sudo gedit /etc/rc.local
and add line
setkeycodes e014 120
V. now we logout and login
VI. go to system, preference and keyboard shortcut and set up launch multimedia player.
(b)
options omnibook ectype=16
3) you don't need to reboot. You can do this
sudo modprobe -v omnibook
