I owe you an example. See, for example, http://www.win.tue.nl/~aeb/linux/kbd/scancodes-5.html#ss5.29 Abbreviated version: Serge van den Boom reports that his LiteOn MediaTouch Keyboard has 18 additional keys: Suspend, Coffee, WWW, Calculator, Xfer, Switch window, Close, |<<, >|, [], >>|, Record, Rewind, Menu, Eject, Mute, Volume +, and Volume -. Of these, the keys |<<, >>|, Volume +, Volume - repeat. The others do not, except for the rather special Switch window key. Upon press it produces the LAlt-down, LShift-down, Tab-down, Tab-up sequence; it repeats Tab-down; and upon release it produces the sequence Tab-up, LAlt-up, LShift-up. (Up events are as usual for the other 17 keys.) - 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/
