Hello Herold,
I tried the same thing on my linux-box directly. I have to mention, that I
use a Microsoft natural pro at windows and a normal cherry keyboard under
linux. I don´t know if it is necessary to mention.
Here my xev log with X directly started on the linux-box
Maybe it helps.
regards,
Darko
