I don't know a "standard way" for lxde. Even in case there is, then it won't work for non-gui operation. ACPI can. > Do the keys without remapping create ab acpi event? You can try this with > kacpimon. Unfortunately not - without the setkeycodes I get the following output with kacpimon: Input Layer: Type: 4 Code: 4 Value: 103 Input Layer: Sync Input Layer: Type: 4 Code: 4 Value: 103 Input Layer: Sync Input Layer: Type: 4 Code: 4 Value: 101 Input Layer: Sync Input Layer: Type: 4 Code: 4 Value: 101 Input Layer: Sync I am not that familiar with acpi - is there another way to map these events to the video/brightness/* event without the "setkeycodes"?
