- corona1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I configured mine with the keyboard shortcuts GUI in gnome. Bindkeys does give you more control though.
I guess I'm just lazy... - SpookyET, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0That's useful. But, can someone post ones for Windows and Mac OS X (using windows keyboard)? The 'Launch Manager' that comes with my Acer laptop that gives functionality to these keys is an unstable piece of just, so i decided to uninstall it.
- cfazzini, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0EXCELLENT.
- doddilus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0wait nevermind its for the x11 only
- GameGod, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Yeah, using the Keyboard/Keyboard Shortcuts settings in GNOME is by far the easiest way (if you're running GNOME)... It's actually one of the reasons I use GNOME over anything else - no xbindkeys/old-school linux configuration crap. :)
- tomciob, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i wish there was a way configure them in windows
without all the software overhead
seriously
i have seen better software out of a freshman cs kids than logitech.
using mx3100 w/ default drivers. - lightyear4, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i use (with great success) http://lineak.sourceforge.net/ -- very tiny footprint, very easy configuration. support for pretty much every keyboard you can find. i have an inspiron 9100 (yes, that beastly monstrous thing), and ive mapped the volume/mute, play/pause, stop, next, and forward keys. i use them with either xmms or amarok, but lineak allows the use of modifiers.....which means i have xterm, firefox, putty, thunderbird, mplayer, etc mapped as well....lineak is an amazing program that should not be passed up
- doddilus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0a more important question:
how do you do it in windows? - rbochan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Also, if using KDE, the Control Center includes modules for various keyboard layouts, as well as custom key mapping.

That one never made it to the front page. This article did. Worse things have been left on the front page. And this article is pretty useful. Thanks linuxgangster. - Mongoose, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Very useful. +digg
- gbm85, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0@ MonkeyFit
Please forgive me for offering an alternative method of accomplishing the task. After all, multiple ways of doing the same thing is a very foreign concept to the Linux community... /sarcasm - N3LDAN, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0doddilus said "a more important question:

haha windows users suck. nice article, the gnome keyboard shortucts doesn't allow you to use Super_L and othe keys for one combination. thanks - ludditemike, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I would just like to join the chorus of people wondering how to do this in Windows.
- x3n1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0xorgcfg and khotkeys work just fine for me!
- jessejoedotcom, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0gnome-keybinding-properties
- brakjoller, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0If you have a great many programs/commands you want to run, it might be hard to find keys for all of them. For you, maybe PyQe will work as well as it works for myself? You will find it here:
http://pyqe.sourceforge.net/
Check out the screenshots.
It requires Python to run and works both in GNU/Linux and Windows. - jhowe, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The author mentions "the following two lines" but never gives them out.... Does anyone know what two likes it's talking about and what file to use in kde?
- dadexter, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0For all of those who asked about Windows... I have no idea. I don't use windows. I wrote the article for X11, not windows...
- jhowe, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Figured it out by looking in the other article (http://www.unicom.com/chrome/a/001028.html) edit ~/.kde/env/xmodmap.sh with a script where the contents is "xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap"
- dadexter, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Oops my bad... I added the two missing lines at the end of the article... I guess I was pretty tired when I wrote it.
Also, to anyone who offered alternatives (KHotkeys or gnome-keybindings-etc). I appreciate that, but I use neither. I wrote the article with the idea that it would work regardless of the WM. - sremick, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I'd like to know how to DISABLE those keys in Windows. At our company we use Firefox as the default browser for employees, but the new Dell USB keyboards have a browser button that maps to IE and you can't change it. No special software is loaded for the keyboard.
