Is there a way to fix keys that don't generate "release" event?
My Lenovo laptop has touch-sensitive media keys that apparently only send "press" events (as seen by showkey) and don't send "release" events. As a result, pressing VolumeUp once starts an infinite loop of increasing volume.. causing all kinds of trouble. "Press" even repeats if the button is held down, but "release" never works.
I have a Lenovo x120e and I have no problems with f17 and media keys like volume control.
I just tried it and when I did a <func-f2> for volumeup, the volume display popped up and with each key press, the bar went up. <func-f1> the volume went down.
I have not checked with showkey.
