[dell-wmi] Dell Vostro 3360 extra multimedia keys don't work

[Oleksandr Natalenko]

Hello.

Got Dell Vostro 3360 with extra multimedia keys as shown here [1], but no luck 
to get them work.

While pressing keys "1" and/or "2" I get the following notice in dmesg:

===
dell_wmi: Unknown key e0f0 pressed
===

On pressing key "3" I get the following:

===
atkbd serio0: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0x60 on 
isa0060/serio0).
atkbd serio0: Use 'setkeycodes 60 <keycode>' to make it known.
===

Watching /proc/interrupts shows that this line:

===
9:      29836        223         96         48   IO-APIC-fasteoi   acpi
===

increments by 2 on pressing each key, and this line:

===
  1:     431013      24838       2688       2270   IO-APIC-edge      i8042
===

Also increments by 1 on pressing key "3".

Running evtest produces the following output [2] with to reaction on keys 
pressing.

acpidump output is also here [3].

Could this be fixed?

Yes, but if they're showing up via atkbd then it doesn't need to be done 
in the kernel. You should just be able to add them to the udev hwdb - 
it's in /lib/udev/hwdb.d/60-keyboard.hwdb on recent versions, somewhere 
else under /lib/udev on older ones.

The only key that is shown via atkbd is key "3", but "1" and "2" do not 
produce atkbd output.

Does this mean that I can make only key "3" work but not all of them?

Oh, I'm sorry - I misread. That will fix number 3. As for 1 and 2 - do 
they both report e0f0, or do they produce different messages in dmesg?

They both report "e0f0".

Well bother. In that case there must be some other way to distinguish 
them. I'll look into it.

Could I help somehow else? Any extra dumps needed?
