Nope. Several of the hits on the first page of results for "apple pro keyboard scroll lock" say it's sending something else. > A few questions: >=20 > 1) Does this work for anyone?

You can open the device and read from it to see what they keyboard is sending. You might also see what xev has to say. > 3) If (1) isn't the case, any idea how to get this working?

Sounds like you'll need an alternate keymap. If you can figure out what the heck it actually does, there's a windoes registry hack floating around that should tell you what you need to know. One annoyance here is that you'll have to modify the keymap you would be useing since there's no way to overwrite part of the existing map. -- Brooks --=20 Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.
