I have the Microsoft Wireless Keyboard 3000 which apparently looks the same (except, well, it is wireless). The keys mentioned above don't work on that one either, but neither do the "menu" key (right of the right alt key) or the multimedia 1/2/3/4/5 keys.
Is there anything a non-programmer can do to help fix this prolem? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-evdev in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1003449 Title: four keys in Microsoft Digital Media Keyboard 3000 doesn't report any events Status in “xserver-xorg-input-evdev” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Using MS Digital Media Keyboard 3000 four keys don't report any X events (checked with xev), all the other keys seems to work.
