Hello, I got the same problem after upgrading to suse 9.1 from 9.0 on a box with a compaq easy access keyboard none of the keys are recognised (not with khotkeys, not with lineakd not with xev) on another box with an IBM rapid access II keyboard some of the keys are recognised, some not. (when I use Us english with deadkeys none of the multimediakeys work) On 9.0 it all works well, also after upgrading KDE to 3.2 and even to 3.3 Maybee it comes from the new kernel? PS: since upgrading to 9.1 I cannot get the EURO sign to work On Friday 27 August 2004 17:36, Randall R Schulz wrote:

Greetings in gnome there is a multimedia keys utility, it works well. Is there one for kde?

i'm using hotkeys and it works fine.

Based on your hint, I hunted this functionality down (Control Center -> Regional & Accessability -> KHotKeys) and started experimenting.

Once I got to the point of adding an action, I find that the so-called media keys on my keyboard (I started with the simple forward and backward keys), when pressed, did not record an input / triggering action that I could map to an equivalent replacement to pass on to the application (ALT+RIGHT or ALT+LEFT, in this case).

Are you using KHotKeys to map non-standard / extras keys as well as stock ones? If so, how is it accomplished? Do I need keyboard-specific add-on software?

If it matters, I have a Memorex MX2750 keyboard.
