Hi,
I have installed omnibook in my fedora core3 with no
problems at all. I can see /proc/omnibook info.
However, now I want to use the notebook buttons, but I
am really lost trying to configure them.
I have used "showkey -s -a" on my 5 hotkeys, plus 3
volume buttons, with the following results (notice that
there are only 7 keys shown here; volume up was not
detected; I mean, showkey did nothing when I pressed it):
[root@llagos ~]# showkey -a -s
Press any keys - Ctrl-D will terminate this program

So now, what follows?
I understand I have to:
- add kernel module at startup (done)
- get scancode to keycode translation (used showkey,
but not all scancodes are shown as "e0-something"; in
fact, none of the volume buttons have e0-code)
- use "loadkey" ?
- modify X files?
Could someone please enlighten me about where should I
go now?
Thanks,
Leo
