Hello,
I've a laptop with 2 additional keys for the Euro and Dollar (Acer
TM8106).
When I press these keys, I get the following error:
atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0xb3 on
isa0060/serio0).
atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e033 <keycode>' to make it known.
atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0xb3 on
isa0060/serio0).
atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e033 <keycode>' to make it known.
When I use setkeycodes to link a keycode to a scancode, as shown below:
setkeycodes 0xb3 205
(I think that this is the same as:
setkeycodes e033 205
At least it gives identical results)
To make the key know as Euro key, I do the following:
loadkeys << "EOF"
keycode 205 = currency
EOF
This results in a the Euro sign on my console with
setfont lat0-16 -m 8859-15
Now my question:
When I do a showkey -s, I expect that when I press the Euro key, which
I
just linked to 0xb3 will be shown. But the following is the result:
showkey -s
kb mode was XLATE
press any key (program terminates after 10s of last keypress)...
0x9c
0xe0 0x25
0xe0 0xa5
What is the reason that the scancode which I set differs from what is
shown by showkey?
With kind regards
Joost Gevers
