[tlinux-users:07964] Re: KToshiba a call for help...

G'day Azael,

Here is the additional info:

CD/DVD
... button << xev shows keycode 144 (keysym 0x1008ff16, XF86AudioPrev)
... button >> xev shows keycode 153 (keysym 0x1008ff17, XF86AudioNext)
... button >|| xev shows  keycode 162 (keysym 0x1008ff14, XF86AudioPlay)
... button [] xev shows keycode 164 (keysym 0x1008ff15, XF86AudioStop)

One touch Web button xev does not show KeyRelease event with the keycode
etc but shows the following:

FocusOut event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x4c00001,
    mode NotifyGrab, detail NotifyAncestor
FocusOut event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x4c00001,
    mode NotifyUngrab, detail NotifyPointer
FocusIn event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x4c00001,
    mode NotifyUngrab, detail NotifyAncestor
KeymapNotify event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x0,
    keys:  2   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0
           0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0

One touch console/help button xev does not show KeyRelease event with
the keycode etc but shows the following

FocusOut event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x4c00001,
    mode NotifyGrab, detail NotifyAncestor
FocusOut event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x4c00001,
    mode NotifyUngrab, detail NotifyPointer
FocusIn event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x4c00001,
    mode NotifyUngrab, detail NotifyAncestor
KeymapNotify event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x0,
    keys:  2   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0
           0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0   0

which appears to be the same as when the Web button is pushed...I have
no idea what this means.

Cheers,
Paul.
