(Just like with the old sonypi :-) However, there are some things that remain unresolved: - the "mousewheel" reports only once every 2 seconds when constantly wheeling (in mev) - pressing the jogdial button produces a keyboard event (keycode 158) rather than a mousebutton 3 event BTW, how can I use the Fn keys on console (keycodes 466-477) for arbitrary shell commands? Such a feature, among which special combinations like Ctrl+Alt+Del also belong, are handled by the kernel which leaves almost no room for user-defined userspace action. Any idea?
