Added firmware side fix in https://github.com/Dasharo/ec/pull/62/commits/c93707e5bf44d967c10f76c6804a4be3abf2fe81

Need to add a quirk to systemd hwdb, something like this: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/d1b04f47e32bd1012ae2e3e6ac9159702463bf15/hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb#L787

but using the actual micmute scancode that is generated on V5x0Tx. A temporary fix can be added to post-install steps.

Yes, that needs to be done

I've additionally enabled the Fn key for NV41 ADL in https://github.com/Dasharo/ec/pull/63/commits/12d626f3ea1fc16c2ad89d2ec0e560121111d5a4 and added the quirks for NV41 ADL and V5x to systemd in https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/34183/commits/40ef5cc669f1d6d9a1854909c4dcd8e68f20f1ea . The combination works as expected now:

micmute

I've additionally enabled the Fn key for NV41 ADL in Dasharo/ec@12d626f and added the quirks for NV41 ADL and V5x to systemd in systemd/systemd@40ef5cc . The combination works as expected now [ ... ]

Amazing! Hopefully, the same can easily be done on the V54 Series (-TU and NVIDIA variants), as well as the V56 Series (-TU and NVIDIA variants), while it's being skipped for the other variants.

I will close the issue once it has been integrated in a release.

mkopec commented 2 days ago

On the firmware side this is integrated in rc5 for nvidia models. The fix is also implemented for -TU models, but it's not included in any release for those models yet.

On V540TND v0.9.1-rc5 adding the change works https://github.com/Dasharo/dasharo-issues/issues/1006#issuecomment-2344096304

You only need to add the line:

KEYBOARD_KEY_81=f20

to /etc/udev/hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb under evdev:atkbd:dmi:bvn*:bvr*:svnNotebook:pnV5xTNX_TND_TNE:*, run udevadm trigger and reboot. Then the mic mute key works perfectly.

filipleple commented 1 day ago

Just to clarify, manually adding the line shouldn't be necessary after the next systemd release, which should happen in a week or two. Then, just keeping the OS updated should do it.

wessel-novacustom commented 1 day ago

Great progress!

Is it also possible to enable this for Windows? It is not working on a V560TND running rc5.
