Dear reader,

I've got an USB Compaq internet keyboard. Ik works fine, apart from a few multimedia keys.
The odd thing is that some keys work and others don't.
Some multimedia keys (find, ?goto?, email, "i", "Q", "e-shopping" and media) don't showup when running showkeys.
The others do (e.g. play).


The /dev/usb/hiddev0 shows that the hardware is functioning, because it shows that the keys do create HID events, so am I right to conclude that the hid-input driver stops them from getting to showkeys (and the rest of the userspace programs)?

And if so, will upgrading my kernel, currently 2.4.22, help?

The keyboard model number is SDM4540UL (may it be needed)

Bram

PS It be happy to send you the output of cat /dev/hiddev0 |hexdump for the missing keys, if it would help.
