| |
Hi!
I have an usb keyboard, and it has some extra keys (internet keys, multimedia keys). If I use the keyboard in ps/2 port, all of those extra buttons work, because I can bind the extra keys's keycodes in a hotkeys program. If I use the keyboard in the usb port, some of the extra keys don't work. In plain console, if I push some of the "non-working" extra buttons, I get these error messages:
keyboard.c: can't emulate rawmode for keycode 259 keyboard.c: can't emulate rawmode for keycode 259
The problem is, that I can not bind keycode 259 in X, because it only works for keycodes between 8 - 255. But when I use the keyboard in the usb port, I get too high keycodes like (see above) 259, which I can not use. I (fortunately) have a few working internet buttons. If I press those in plain console, I get these messages:
keyboard: unknown scancode e0 66
I don't think this is an error, because that key, which "produces" the "keyboard: unknown scancode e0 66" message, works under X, and can be binded to an action.
Is there any chance to make the keyboard work similarly in the ps/2 and the usb port?
Please try to help me with this problem, I'm already through the xfree86-list, and the debian-user list, but nobody could help me.
Thanks!
