Many of the special keys on my Asus N50Vn notebook do not work (fn+ combinations and extra buttons) - but some of them do, so there should be hope.
- xev gives no output when using those keys
- dmesg gives no output when using those keys
Had xev responded, I'd be able to assign the key out of the box and had dmesg responded, I'd know I need to play with freedesktop as explained here - but now my hands are kind of tied.
Any ideas?
I'm running Ubuntu 8.10 x86_64 with kernel 2.6.27-11-generic.
To get an idea of what works and what not, I attached a photo of the keyboard: x means no output in either xev or dmesg and o means it works. Note: The external playback and misc buttons appear to be only a set of 4 hardware (touch-kind-of) buttons, whose function is modified by a switch near them, marked with s.
