Kmix + keyboard

[cyber1331]

Hey guys, i have a logitech cordless keyboard with volume control on it. I just upgraded from breezy to dapper and i can no longer increase the volume. I checked the keys to make sure they were reading right. And they are. Now here is the weird part.

Volume down works as well as next/prev/play/pause/stop and mute.

I just cannot get volume up to register

Now i have narrowed it down to kmix i belive. Does anyone else have this problem. And if so, how did they fix it.

Thanks

Re: Kmix + keyboard

I had a similar issue (no volume up...no mediabutton)...I have a Logitech Internet Navigator SE keyboard

This worked for me:

1. edit the file:
/etc/X11/xkb/symbols/inet

2. Find the section:

// Logitech

// Logitech common definitions
partial hidden alphanumeric_keys
xkb_symbols "logitech_base" {

//    key <I01> {	[ XF86AudioMedia ] };
    key <I02> { [ XF86WWW ] };
    key <I10> { [ XF86AudioPrev ] };
    key <I15> { [ XF86Community ] };
    key <I16> { [ XF86ScrollClick ] };
    key <I19> { [ XF86AudioNext ] };
    key <I20> { [ XF86AudioMute ] };
    key <I21> {	[ XF86VendorHome ] };
    key <I22> { [ XF86AudioPlay, XF86AudioPause ] };
    key <I24> { [ XF86AudioStop ] };
    key <I2E> { [ XF86AudioLowerVolume ] };
//    key <I2F> {	[ XF86AudioRaiseVolume ] };
    key <I30> { [ XF86AudioRaiseVolume ] };
    key <I32> { [ XF86HomePage ] };
    key <I3B> { [ XF86New ] };
    key <I3C> { [ XF86Reply ] };
    key <I43> { [ XF86MyComputer ] };
    key <I44> { [ XF86Documents ] };
    key <I57> { [ XF86Pictures ] };
    key <I58> { [ XF86Music ] };
    key <I5F> { [ XF86Standby ] };
    key <I65> { [ XF86Search ] };
    key <I66> {	[ XF86Favorites	] };
    key <I6A> { [ XF86Back ] };
    key <I6C> { [ XF86Mail ] };
    key <I6D> { [ XF86AudioMedia ] };
};

3. Notice how duplicate entries of 'XF86AudioMedia' and 'XF86AudioRaiseVolume' have been commented out --> save

4. After restarting x both buttons worked

No guarantees, but try it out
