Acer 3400LMI Laptop User Manual


 
F8-x86_64 on the Acer Ferrari 3400LMi
me was:
Button X key-code Default X key symbols
Mail 236 -
WWW 178 -
Fn-F4 223 none, but triggers KPowersave suspend->RAM
Fn-F5 214 none, but generate a Capability changed event
that is received by the X-server.
Fn-F8 160 -
Fn-NumLk 77 Num_Lock
Fn-Scr Lk 78 Scroll_Lock
Fn-Home 97 Home
Fn-End 103 End
Fn-up 176 -
Fn-down 174 -
These are the buttons that are the simplest to get working. Save these X key-
codes for future use. First we need to get the other keys to show up under X as
well. In order for them to do so they need properly configured Linux key-codes
that they lack for the moment.
8.1.2 Scan-codes
This step is different and considerable easier under F8 than FC4 or FC5. There is
no need to shutdown X now as before.
2. Just press the desired key, ex. P1. Then take look at the dmesg output:
# dmesg | tail
atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0xf4 on
isa0060/serio0).
atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e074 <keycode>' to make it known.
atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0xf4 on
isa0060/serio0).
atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e074 <keycode>' to make it known.
I got the following result:
