What should be the meaning of this key, i. e. what's written on it? What it its scancode?

Known X.org limitation to key codes < 256 (bug 313514).

Do you actually get key events in keymap -i if you press those keys? If so, we can just fix them. Whether the device is recognized as touchpad or keyboard doesn't actually matter for this particular issue (although it's still wrong, of course).

KEY_NEXT/KEY_PREV are again >= 256 and thus cannot be used in X.org. (again bug 313514).
