Stories similar to Dell Studio 14 Keyboard

I have Dell studio 1555 Laptop, I installed Fedora 12, if I press brightness control key's, menu comes but brightness is not varying and dvd drive eject key is also not functioning,but sound control Keys are working.

I'm running 12.04 on a Dell XPS 1340. When I toggle the brightness on the backlit keyboard using the Fn-right arrow keys my keyboard will lock but the trackpad and BlueTooth mouse continue to work,

I thought it may have been a DE issue but to date I've had this problem on gnome3 (both classic and new), XFCE, Unity, and KDE.

My girlfriend has a Samsung NC20 laptop/netbook(/whatever), running Ubuntu 10.10. When she attached a Dell monitor her laptop touchpad stopped working.

I did a BIOS update on my Dell Studio XPS 13 laptop and now for some reason whenever I try to use the arrow keys (up, down, left, right) all they do is bring up VLC. All the other keys on the keyboard work fine, including my multimedia keys.

Does anyone have any idea how I might change this or even look at the configuration for the arrow keys?

Thanks!

Hello,

I have ubuntu 9.10 karmic koala and since one of the updates the keyboard has started to miss keystrokes and get keys stuck. I start getting things like "anddddddddddddddddddd" in the middle of my texts. I have checked on windows and previous live versions of ubuntu and it is fine.

Any ideas?

[ubuntu] USB keyboard issue 3 years 47 weeks ago

Hi All,

The usb keyboard that I have connected to my Dell E6430 running ubunthu 12.04 with gnome 3 does not open the activites overlay when i press the "windows key" on the usb keyboard.

It works just fine when I use the laptop keyboard.

I used

~$ sudo /lib/udev/keymap -i

To find what the key code was and in both cases (laptop and external keyboard) it is leftmeta.

Hi,

Hi guys, What an amazing system Ubuntu is and I remember about 5 years ago I had a huge problem with all sorts of drivers but no more it usually runs everything. I came up with a little problem here. According to many people video chip in my laptop should be 100% supported with 2D/3D acceleration, yet I can't get it to work. I have DELL Studio 1535 with Intel 965GM Graphics.
