Hi,

It seems so simple but now I'm a little confused with the X system's key
events.

In essence I have in the constructor:

ga = new KGlobalAccel(0, "globalAccel");
ga->insert("omni_volumeUp", i18n("Special key volume up"),
		i18n("Special key volume up"),
		KShortcut(Qt::Key_VolumeUp), KShortcut(Qt::Key_VolumeUp), this,
		SLOT(volumeUp()), false);

and later:

void ShortcutTest::volumeUp()
{
	cout << "adsfasdf"<<endl;
}

In the attachment the modmap modification works correctly as you can see in
the xev.txt output. Nevertheless, my dummy app does not invoke volumeUp().

And I find now help between KKey, KNativeKey, KKeyEvent, QEvent, X11 symbols,
etc.

If you have some spare time, it would be nice to bring some light in my X11
darkness. If this problem is cleared, I can send you my omnibook kmilo
support.

Thanks,
wr

I have modified my xmodmap
