Hi list,

This is a reply to a message sent over 1 year ago :)
Unfortunately, the issue described in the original message still seems to 
occur and is troubling me now. I.e. the function keys F1 - F12 are working 
fine, but when I press F-Lock, the special keys FnF1 to FnF4 and FnF6 to FnF8 
and FnF10 to FnF12 are not working for me. Nothing is shown in xev, or in 
showkeys or in dmesg.
FnF5 and FnF9 give "keycode 199 (keysym 0x0, NoSymbol)" and "keycode 198 
(keysym 0x0, NoSymbol)" respectively in xev, which is different from the 
original post. I am using 2.6.12-gentoo-r6 on AMD64 with bluez-(utils/libs) 
2.19.

I have been unable to find anything useful in the kernel code. Is there a 
specific place I should look? There seem to be quite some tables with 
keycodes/scancodes, and I can not seem to find the one that is used by my 
Dinovo keyboard in bluetooth mode (i.e. not in bootmode).

Thanks,

Rutger
