Bug Description
Ubuntu 11.04 doesn't understand Word/Excel keys from Chicony KB-0350 keyboard when they are pressed in Keyboard Shortcuts application.
Using instructions from /usr/share/
As a user I expect to see Chicony KB-0350 among choices in Keyboard Preferences -> Layouts -> Keyboard model. How can I add my model there with a new keymap? Please provide some entrypoints.

According to your lsusb output this does not seem to be an USB keyboard, but according to http:// www.chicony. de/html/ 0350.html it seems to be an external one. Did you connect it through PS/2? But in the UdevDB attachment I don't even see any input device which could be this keyboard. Did you actually have it connected when you reported this bug?
