I've also gathered some information on the keyboard and the missing keys. Attached are two files, with some dmesg info as output when the hid driver is loaded with the option debug=2. logitech-dinovo-edge-keys-log contains dmesg output when pressing the keys that do not work. I've entered a key description followed by the info from dmesg. Some keys do not generate any output, those are followed by a blank line. logitech-dinovo-edge-plug-log contains the dmesg output when the keyboard's receiver is plugged in. If anyone can give me any pointers on where and how to specify these keys, and why some keys are completely dead, I would be very grateful. -- - Louai Al-Khanji -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-input" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
