I have Genius Ergomedia 700 USB keyboard but not all "multimedia" keys are working. In manual it's written that "My document/My picture/My music/Scrolling buttons/Left and right scrolling functions/Zoom in/Zoom out/Messenger/Messenger status/Webcam/Audio 1-3/Word/Excel/Powerpoint do not function unless driver has been installed". And exactly those keys do not working while other multimedia keys are working fine. What can be done to enable those additional multimedia keys?
Hi Alex, please compile your kernel with CONFIG_HID_DEBUG, modprobe the hid module with 'debug=1' parameter, and send me the dmesg output that appears when you connect the keyboard, and also when you press the individual buttons. Please annotate the output (i.e. "this happened when I pressed the XYZ key"). Thanks, -- Jiri Kosina
