I tried the same on a Creative Prodikeys keyboard, but can't see any 
events for some keys (most notably none of the "piano" keys work). Is 
there anything that can be done to make it work?
Hi Taneli,

yes. Could you please grab reasonably recent kernel (2.6.24-rc<anything> 
would be ok), compile it with CONFIG_HID_DEBUG, modprobe the 'hid' module 
with 'debug=1' parameter, and send me the output from the time you connect 
the keyboard and from pressing the non-working keys? It should be trivial 
to fix then.
Thanks for prompt reply Jiri. Now I get some information for extra
function keys at the top row, but still nothing for the "piano" keys.
Here's the output for two previously non-functioning keys:

Is this the information you asked? I can make you the full mapping of
non-working keys to log messages. However, I don't think that's very
useful if the "piano" keys don't work, as they're the main reason for
having such a keyboard in the first place.

There was a great deal of log messages at the time of plugging in the
keyboard. I didn't feel comfortable spamming the list with it, so it is
available at:
http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/u/vahakang/hid-dbg.txt

(I think all the log entries after 00:23:59 are key presses, but
couldn't tell for sure.)

BTW, here's a picture of the keyboard in question ... just in case my
descriptions don't seem to make sense:
