I have the following in my ~/.xmodmaprc: keycode 234 = XF86Back keycode 233 = XF86Forward keycode 232 = XF86Stop keycode 231 = XF86Refresh keycode 130 = XF86HomePage keycode 236 = XF86Mail keycode 198 = XF86MyComputer keycode 161 = XF86Calculator keycode 160 = XF86AudioMute keycode 164 = XF86AudioStop keycode 144 = XF86AudioPrev keycode 153 = XF86AudioNext keycode 162 = XF86AudioPlay keycode 129 = XF86AudioMedia keycode 174 = XF86AudioLowerVolume keycode 176 = XF86AudioRaiseVolume And it doesn't work with my WM. Thanks for the tip. So far, I ran (as root): # usbhidctl -anrv -f /dev/uhid0 Report descriptor: Total input size 0 bytes Total output size 1 bytes Total feature size 1 bytes On Sat, Aug 22, 2009 at 11:09 PM, Henry Hu<henry.hu.sh@gmail.com> wrote: > On Sun, Aug 23, 2009 at 10:16 AM, Dieter<freebsd@sopwith.solgatos.com> wrote: >>> My question is, how do I go about writing a userland application to >>> access the extra buttons?
