I have the model laptop listed in the thread’s title. My brightness keys do not adjust brightness but instead put the system to sleep or standby. That behavior is the same in both KDE and Gnome.
The ability to scroll by sliding two fingers up or down on the touchpad does not work in Gnome, requiring the old-fashioned click and drag. :rolleyes:
KDE allows me to scroll up and down without flaw.
I’m fairly new to manually adjusting settings via code or any other methods outside of graphical interface. Therefore, if you have any solutions please provide a thorough walk-through for the less knowledgeable.
Under system settings, hardware, mouse settings I was able to enable two finger scrolling (Gnome). Must not be enabled by default. As for the keyboard layout, all I’m able to find are nationally described layouts. Nothing hardware specific to my laptop. Perhaps I am looking in the wrong place?
Unfortunately, that keyboard layout did not do the trick. Still goes into standby when I press F3 (supposed to brighten my screen). I also tried pressing “FN” in combination to see it would work, which indeed failed.
Also with this laptop, after the battery has completed charging and I unplug the charger, the battery percentage monitor stays at 100%. Obviously after an hour goes by I don’t expect that to be the case, and to see where my charge is I close my laptop then reopen it which then refreshes to the correct amount of charge. Not a big deal, just providing more information in regards to this laptop.
So did I miss where you mentioned your openSUSE version and desktop used? It can help with the solution we provide. Any time I have hardware issues, I look to upgrading the kernel version. Please consider reading my blog on kernel updating as it can help.
