Ok, so I have recently acquired a Microsoft Office keyboard from a friend=
who=20
hated it. (large desk footprint, few other reasons)
I would love the irony of using this keyboard under linux, since the MS=20
hardware department is a losing venture (as is every other department bes=
ides=20
windows and office) So I like the idea that I am costing MS money. Anyw=
ay,=20
back to my problem.
It has all kinds of extra buttons that are not part of the current XFree8=
6=20
keyboard layout. Some of them are, but most not. I am able to get the=20
signals from xev (X Event Viewer) but now I am stuck as to what to do wi=
th=20
them.
Some lite research has pointed me to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/ and the keyb=
oard=20
layout files in there. But I am stumped as to where I could just write=20
"signal X =3D button Y" or is it not that easy?
