Too late now but for future reference.
apropos keyboard
(deleted those that don't apply)
showkey (1) - examine the codes sent by the keyboard
man showkey
"showkey prints to standard output either the scan codes or
the keycode or the `ascii' code of each key pressed.
Isn't Linux great! When you know how to ask it a question, it knows
how to answer.
Hope this will help you in the future!!
