Hi, I have a Clevo D410J laptop (see dmidecode output attached). When I press the "Application Launch" special key I get the following message in dmesg: [ 60.865561] atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0x81 on isa0060/serio0). [ 60.865574] atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e001 <keycode>' to make it known. [ 60.967948] atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0x81 on isa0060/serio0). [ 60.967962] atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e001 <keycode>' to make it known. Is it possible to add support for the "Application Launch" key directly in the kernel? I am currently running Linux kernel 2.6.30-rc5. Regards, Márton Németh
