I didn't have to do anything to get those working, except make sure kmix is loaded on login. It seems that it automatically interpreted the volume controls correctly. And if I remember correctly, even if kmix was't loaded, it was loaded by the first volume keypress. Strangely enough, the volume keys have continued working after the upgrade to xorg-x11 7.0. > keycode 178 (keysym 0x1008ff18, XF86HomePage), > keycode 160 (keysym 0x1008ff12, XF86AudioMute), > keycode 174 (keysym 0x1008ff11, XF86AudioLowerVolume), > keycode 176 (keysym 0x1008ff13, XF86AudioRaiseVolume), The following work with kmix: keycode 160 (keysym 0x1008ff12, XF86AudioMute) keycode 174 (keysym 0x1008ff11, XF86AudioLowerVolume) keycode 176 (keysym 0x1008ff13, XF86AudioRaiseVolume) The following don't work as shortcuts: keycode 162 (keysym 0x1008ff14, XF86AudioPlay) keycode 164 (keysym 0x1008ff15, XF86AudioStop) keycode 144 (keysym 0x1008ff16, XF86AudioPrev) keycode 153 (keysym 0x1008ff17, XF86AudioNext) > But maybe KDE is looking in the old place /usr/lib/X11 for keyboard > files, which for Xorg 7.0 moved to /usr/share/X11.
