[Bug 713278] Re: Touchpad Hotkey not working on Asus V6

[Thorsten Reinbold]

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: acpid
  
  The Hotkey for dis/enabling the touchpad isn't working for me.
  
  I tried to track the Problem down, but without luck.
  
  While pressing the key, acpi_listen says:
  
  hotkey ATKD 0000006b 00000000
  
  This is the correct entry in /etc/acpi/events/asus-touchpad.
  
  I've tried to run /etc/acpi/asus-touchpad.sh manually, but all I got
  was:
  
- nordlicht at Demian:/etc/acpi$ ./asus-touchpad.sh 
+ user at Demian:/etc/acpi$ ./asus-touchpad.sh
  Couldn't find a filedescriptor that points to the terminal.
  
- nordlicht at Demian:/etc/acpi$ sudo ./asus-touchpad.sh 
+ user at Demian:/etc/acpi$ sudo ./asus-touchpad.sh
  awk: line 1: regular expression compile failed (missing '(')
  :0)

- After changing #!/bin/sh to #!/bin/bash in /etc/acpi/asus-touchpad.sh I am able to run the Script manually (it works) but the hotkey is still useless.
