Hello there. First of all: If you answer, please CC: to me, as I am not subscribed to this Mailinglist. As part of my Christmas presents I got an Cherry CyMotion XPress (G86-21050). I searched the web, but did not find usefull information on extended keyboards. Strange enough, not all of the "special" keys are recognized with xev. Can someone tell me why? Then it would be easy to write a .xinputrc or something similar. Or is there already a definition file? I couldn't find any. setxkbmap tells the following. xkb_keymap { xkb_keycodes { include "xfree86+aliases(qwertz)" }; xkb_types { include "complete" }; xkb_compat { include "complete" }; xkb_symbols { include "en_US(pc105_nodeadkeys)+de(nodeadkeys)" }; xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc105)" }; }; This is the output of the version switch. I am sure, the problem is not related to the beta version I use. This is a pre-release version of XFree86, and is not supported in any way. Bugs may be reported to XFree86@xxxxxxxxxxx and patches submitted to fixes@xxxxxxxxxxxx Before reporting bugs in pre-release versions, please check the latest version in the XFree86 CVS repository (http://www.XFree86.Org/cvs).
