I have a Microsoft Ergonomic 4000 keyboard with some multimedia keys that are not in use. I'd like to assign them to Copy and Paste in X. Although I use Kubuntu Linux, I would prefer a non-distro and non-DE specific manner.
The key that I would like to assign for Copy has these properties: Scancode (showkey -s): 0xe0 0xba 0xe0 0xea Keycode (showkey): 158 Keycode (xev): 166 I have tried these .Xmodmap lines and none of the worked to assign the key to Cut: keycode 158 = XF86Copy keycode 166 = XF86Copy I should note that I _think_ that XF86Copy affects the mouse highlight-and-middle-click clipboard, not the ctrl-c|ctrl-v clipboard. It is the later that I do need, not the former.
