I also used xev to capture the keycodes (they appear in dmesg, so you
can tail -f syslog to see what is happening).

I have all the buttons on my logitech mx510 working.  Also, the media
keys on my laptop worked "out of the box" by choosing the Dell Inspiron
keyboard layout from the KDE control panel (the Compaq laptop keyboard
layout only partially worked.. and I have a compaq presario).

My own experiences have been a mix of good and bad.  I was not able to
get the lineak stuff working in kde (the kde gui front end) so I ended
up going the script route, which fortunatly for everyone is well
documented (you don't need to know how to write scripts, though as
always, it is never a bad thing to learn).  Some distros may be more
point and click, but even though the klinea stuff was not working under
kubuntu, I was able to get all the functionality working with less
effort than expected.

It looks like the main page for lineak is down, but you should be able
to get the important stuff from this link:

Cheers
