Comment 27 for bug 272292

I have a thinkpad t42 and a new intrepid ibex ubuntu 8.10 installation done on 12/24/2008.

Volume up/down/mute and all others were working beautifully. I installed the tpd package a 3 day ago. OSD and volume control was still working fine.

Somewhere in between something happened ... no more OSD for volume up/down/mute nor brightness. Volume keys and function keys no longer trigger an event in the event tester. I did something similar like user lemonidas did - changed the keyboard shortcut for the volume button from XF86AudioUp to something like Ctrl+U and this brought my volume up button back to life. I assume that if i do this for the rest it will work as well.

I assume it must have been an update of one of the packages that came in on my system. Is there a way to check which packages were updated last?
