Hmm, they use KEY_0 through KEY_9 now.
Which results in the phone sending 'é+ěščřžýáí' instead of
'0123456789'
on a Czech keyboard, which is definitely not what's intended. Similarly
for many other European keyboards.
Hmm, I uttely confused. Why when atkbd emits KEY_0 it you get 0 in the
shell (don't you?) but different result with phone keypad?
No, on a Czech keyboard you don't. You press KEY_0, you get 'é'. The
French layout gives sililar results. (For '0' you need to press
KEY_SHIFT KEY_0.)
Oh, I completely forgot that there are keyboards that have numbers on
upper register. I think I used such keymap on Yamaha MSX2 in high
school... 20 years ago..?

But the keypad only works wif you have NumLock on right?
Yes. But the remote doesn't have a NumLock LED or key, right? Then, if
X had per-device lockstate, there wouldn't be a problem. But I fear the
lockstate and shiftstate is completely shared, like on the console.
