I have a Dell Inspiron 8600 and just about everything on it works (bar the 
modem). It has several 'multimedia' buttons which work (play/stop/volume/etc) 
after I assigned keysyms to them.

Unfortunately two of the extra keys - the eject (Fn+F10) and wifi radio 
control (Fn+F2) keys only seem to generate key press events with no 
corresponding release event. This makes them useless as a hotkey type program 
will only see the first press :(

Has anyone got a way to fix it? :)
