Bug Description
Binary package hint: udev
The special media keys in the Toshiba Satellite U500 do not work. Following the instructions in /usr/share/
*The mute key was originally mapped to 'd'. Apparently it is linked to the 'd' key itself, because changing the mapping of this key also changes the mapping of the 'd' key to mute! This makes the keyboard unusable, of course.
* Next/previous track do not work, even with the mapping attached.
* There is a key -supposed to launch the media player- that does not do anything even under sudo /lib/udev/keymap -i input/event3. This key works in Windows.
I'm using Ubuntu 10.10, and udev version 162-2.1

Thanks for your help. Cheers,

Do you get any different scan code in keymap -i for the 'd' and the 'mute' keys? Which scan code/key code did you get for the media key?
For the next/previous track keys, which key code did you see in keymap -i? With which program did you try it? Rhythmbox handles those well.
