Just for the record:

Okay, for these (and a lot more) keys I (and you) need at least
hal-0.5.10 as said in the link above from Jiri. The keys supported by
hal are available in the 30-keymap-*.fdi files from the hal-info git:

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/hal-info/tree/fdi/information/10freedesktop

I hope this helps people with the same questions and problems.

Thanks for your help,
Niels
