The only key that I couldn't get to work was the power key, because I think it sent ctrl+alt+Fn, or something like that, which made X unhappy. I wrote up a little table using xev and pressing every button, then used mythweb to set appropriate keys using the table that I made. Worked fine - except that it was impossible to use a regular keyboard on that frontend from then on.
