Multimedia keys behaviour reverted after resume (the 20-k290.sh script does not run on Ubuntu as pm-utils are not used anymore)

[madadam]

Hello,

After my machine resumes from suspend, the F-keys are reverted back to their default multimedia behaviour. This is because the /etc/pm/sleep.d/20-k290.sh script is not executed anymore. This is because Ubuntu switched to systemd and no longer uses pm-utils (not sure in which version of Ubuntu this happened). I fixed it by putting a script with the following content:

#!/bin/bash

case "$1" in
    post)
        /usr/local/sbin/k290_fnkeyctl > /dev/null
        ;;
esac
exit 0

in /lib/systemd/system-sleep and making it executable. I suspect there is probably more proper way to do it, but this worked for me.

Thank you for the report! I personally don't use Ubuntu so didn't know that they had changed to systemd as well. I'll adapt the packaging script accordingly!

Cool! Let me know if you need someone to test it.

I just realized that I didn't add any packaging for Ubuntu yet. The install.sh script just checks for the existence of /etc/pm/sleep.d and /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/ respectively. So if you installed from a repository clone, you may just need to run it again and it should install the systemd-script. You can remove the script in /etc/pm/sleep.d then, too.

I just ran into this too: The systemd files do not work on Ubuntu because it patches systemd to look for scripts only in /lib/systemd/system-sleep/ instead of /usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/

Fix is in #13

Worked fine for me (Mint 18.1, based on Xenial).

I've used Spone's fork which have @arichardson's commits already merged and it worked fine for me. By the way I'm using Debian but the problem still affected me.
