So I've followed the instructions from the above link, and I've added
the following to /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/10freedesktop/30-keymap-
hp.fdi :
<match
key="/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer:system.hardware.product"
contains="CQ70">
<!-- The Compaq Presario CQ70 has a touchpad disable button -->
<append key="input.keymap.data" type="strlist">e058:f22</append>
<!-- Touchpad toggle (on-to-off) -->
<append key="input.keymap.data" type="strlist">e059:f22</append>
<!-- Touchpad toggle (off-to-on) -->
</match>
Now the key is seen from xev, both on the first and second "click". However, I
still have a problem...
This is what is returned by:
xev | sed -n 's/^.*state \([0-9].*\), keycode *\([0-9]\+\) *\(.*\), .*$/keycode
\2 = \3, state = \1/p'
keycode 200 = (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), state = 0x10
keycode 200 = (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), state = 0x10
keycode 200 = (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), state = 0x10
keycode 200 = (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), state = 0x10
I see that the keysym is 0x0, which does not seem to be nice.
And there is something strange:
When I configure the keyboard shortcuts (from System -> keyboard shortcuts) and
I create a new shortcut (for the command "firefox", for example), pressing the
key does not produce anything. However, if I associate this key with "Launch
help browser", the help browser gets called... I must admit that I am a bit
surprised by this!
Would anyone have an idea how to associate this key to the script
/etc/acpi/asus-touchpad.sh (which takes care of deactivating the
touchpad once you have enabled SHMConfig:
