Are the keys recognised? Have you checked? When you run this command: xev | grep -A2 --line-buffered '^KeyRelease' | sed -n '/keycode \ /s/^.*keycode \([0-9]*\).* (.*, \(.*\)).*$/\1 \2/p' Do you get any output? I had a problem with the volume keys not working on my laptop recently, but the above command gave the output of: 123 XF86AudioRaiseVolume 122 XF86AudioLowerVolume 121 XF86AudioMute And using xbindkeys solved it (well, a Debian user told me how to solve it using xbindkeys!): http://lists.debian.org/debian-laptop/2013/02/msg00019.html https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xbindkeys H -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
