An easier way would be to use keyTouch http://keytouch.sourceforge...

The scancodes (when a key isn’t recognized) are spit out by the kernel. Ctrl+Alt+F10 gets me to the kernel output. I’m using SuSE 10.0. It may be different in other distros.

what about the mouse? does it work correctly including the 4-way-scroll-wheel? I found this (http://lomoco.linux-gamers….) but it says that it will only work if it’s connected via USB. One poster at top said that the extra-keys wouldnt work with usb, so that means either extra-key or correct mouse-function?

I’ve recently run into this kind of howto http://forums.gentoo.org/vi... I haven$t tried it yet but according to the comments there it seems to work with similar keyboards.

Where does the kernel print the scancodes to? I have looked in various sytem logs, dmesg etc. without result.

The article does not seem to explain how the shown example of a found scancode is generated.

I had to put my keyboard into scancode mode before I got anything from the media keys. Check the mode with the command "kbd_mode"

Any had any luck getting the LX700 to work via USB, including all media keys? I had most of my media keys working when it was connected via PS2, but when it's connected with USB, I get this in my Xorg.0.log:

LookupDeviceIntRec id=0x8 not found

repeated twice for each time I press one of the non-standard keys (the standard keys work as expected btw). The mouse seems to work okay, its just the media keys on the keyboard that aren't working. This is with X.org 7.0 if that makes a difference.
