Hello all,
i'm a new gnu/linux users. In the past i have used it several times but since i have bought my new laptop i have decided to use gnu/linux only and leave windows forever. I usually have not any problems with Trisquel, but on this laptop i have 2 problems that i can't fit and I hope that someone can help me:
1) up, down, right arrow keys does not work. When i use terminal i'm using " 8 , 4, 2, 6" with bloc num instead, but there's some situations in which i need arrow keys, and this is the most relevant issue and really need help
2) the other problems, not so important, is that i can't adjust the screen backlight (i usually use xbacklight, not working this time)
Hi there and congrats!
1) If you open a terminal window and inputxev
does it react when you punch those arrows?
2) What's your output oflscpi

when i run xev
in terminal : i have reactions with left, down, right arrow kesys, nothing with up key
in windows : the square does not move
i forgot to say that left key is the only one that properly works.
1) There at least used to be a way to make custom key bindings hidden somewhere in the system settings. (If that's gone we can use the xbindkeys command from the package with the same name) Once you find it you could install the xdotool package and bind up arrow to the command "xdotool key Up"
(The other key names are unsurprisingly Down, Left and Right)
2) What's your output offind /sys -iname brightness
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/drm/card0/card0-eDP-1/intel_backlight/brightness
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/backlight/acpi_video0/brightness
/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.2/0000:02:00.0/leds/ath9k-phy0/brightness
/sys/module/acer_wmi/parameters/brightness
That ath9k is unrelated, not sure about the others. If you can change the brightness somehow e.g. a key binding do so and see if the contents of those 3 files changes.
Then you could try changing the contents yourself to see if that changes brightness. (note that you can't sudo echo blabla > file, you need to sudo sh -c 'echo blabla > file')
ok 1st problem is gone, i just did a sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and reboot .
still persist the 2nd issue :( (backlight)
