multimedia keys
Can't HP think of some solution for these problems ??
BTW, I'm using a Compaq Presario 2203AL Notebook running Debian "testing + unstable" on it.

Re: multimedia keys
There's an additional problem that scancode mapping is highly variable under 2.6.x kernels, so it's not even clear what they would be able to document.
If you've figured out how to get the scancodes and assign them to hotkeys, you're doing pretty well. You DO in fact have the flexibility to assign these keys to whatever applications seem appropriate. That's good because not everyone uses the same email, browser, etc. programs under Linux.

Re: multimedia keys
Thanks for your reply.
But the issue is that the kernel doesn't have any keycodes for those key presses. If the kernel produced keycodes itself I'd not have had the pain of mapping the actual kernel scancodes to some manual keycodes and then assign those keycodes to applications (In your case with the help of some Gnome utility).
And also I don't use Gnome :-)
Thanks for the reply anyway.
