    camera + FN-Keys on vaio

    Hi

    I have a VGN-SZ2HP/B Sony Vaio laptop. I have gotten almost everything to work, except the camera. I didn't use it often under windows, but it just annoys me that I can't use it.

    I've tried installing motioneye, but still can't get it to work. I'm not even sure it gets recognized (as anything). Here's an lspci output:

    I can't get the FN-keys to work under KDE (they all work under GNOME) and I can't get the S1 and S2 keys to work either. This is the output of tail -0f /var/log/acpid (from top down, S1, S2, VOLUME_DOWN and BRIGHTNESS_DOWN (which works)):

    I'm not able to just assign certain applications or commands for example the shortcut S1 in System Settings -> Regional and Accesiibility -> Keyboard shortcuts, otherwise that would of course be the way.
    As with everything in Linux, can't I just put a script somewhere and it will all work?

    Thanks!

    Problem solved!

    I guess this solution can fix all problems related to media keys:

    http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Use_Mul...ing_up_xmodmap

    Worked for me anyway. Only problem remaining now is that the S1 and S2 keys point to the same keycode. Only thing left now is the camera...
