(That is, the majority of the keyboards sold today do not do as one would wish. Since Microsoft does not require anything for Set 3, behaviour in Set 3 is essentially random, especially for these additional keys and buttons. A single keypress may give several scancodes, or none at all. Many laptops do not have any support for Set 3. USB compatibility only implements compatibility with translated Set 2.) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
