I have a Logitech keyboard with similar keys. I got them to work (under X) by using the following method:
Run 'xev' to get the keycode. Use 'xmodmap' to map the code to a keysym known to X. Once I got the commands right, I put them in my .xinitrc file. Here's what it looks like for me: xmodmap -e "keycode 236 = XF86Calculator" xmodmap -e "keycode 178 = XF86HomePage" You can get a list of valid keysyms from /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysymDB Hope this helps, Ben On Mon, Jan 21, 2002 at 04:18:44PM +0000, Ian Truelsen wrote: > I just inherited a Compaq 1267 laptop that has these little keys on it for > bringing up a browser, mail program and the like.
