Public bug reported:
I have a Sony UX1XN, but other Sony UX series of laptops all have the
same problem (from discussion with other users on micropctalk.com)
There are additional 'hotkeys' on the device. In trying to work out how
to assign the keys (there are 4) I have discovered they are all showing
as the same function as each other and are showing the same function on
press and release.
>From a 'real' console (CTRL+ALT+F1) I get the following (I have added the 'on
>press/on release':
"showkey -k" then press the buttons I was trying to identify. I get the
following -
0x00 0x81 0x94 0x00 0x81 0x94 (on press)
0x00 0x81 0x94 0x00 0x81 0x94 (one release)
0x00 0x81 0x94 0x00 0x81 0x94 (on press)
0x00 0x81 0x94 0x00 0x81 0x94 (one release)
0x00 0x81 0x94 0x00 0x81 0x94 (on press)
0x00 0x81 0x94 0x00 0x81 0x94 (one release)

0x00 0x81 0x94 0x00 0x81 0x94 (one release)
"showkey -s" shows
0xe0 0x1f 0xe0 0x9f (on press)
0xe0 0x1f 0xe0 0x9f (one release)
0xe0 0x1f 0xe0 0x9f (on press)

>From a console within X, I get the following from 'xev' on every key (on the

XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XFilterEvent Returns: False
KeyRelease event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x3c00001,
root 0x5f, subw 0x0, time 877210560, (-305,542), root357,599),
state 0x0, keycode 159 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XFilterEvent Returns: False
I can include the full output from each key if that is of help, but I
understand that the keycode must be unique in order to assign separate
functions to each buttons.
