Public bug reported: Using a Logitech Cordless Desktop MX700. All Multimedia Function keys are ignored, e.g. not detected. In hardy - it still worked if under X (KDE 3.5.x) I did not use the evdev driver. In intrepid, even if not using the evdev driver, it doesn't.
The Mouse is working OK in fallback mode - e.g. only the default buttons are recognized. If unplugging and replugging while under X , the Cordless Desktop Receiver, almost all Multimedia Keys are working. But not all. I attached the xorg.0.log file, with the content of informations during the unplugging and replugging. dmesg, lsusb and lspci also attached. - I have tested the kernel proposed in Bug #281993 (regression fix for Microsoft Keyboards). Didn't work. - I had the same issue in Hardy when letting the Keyboard running using the evdev Driver. When disabling it and configuring the Keyboard/Mouse Manually, it worked. The configurations that worked are documented here: http://stargate.solsys.org/mod.php?mod=faq&op=extlist&topicid=7&expand=yes#111 http://stargate.solsys.org/mod.php?mod=faq&op=extlist&topicid=7&expand=yes#110 As you can see the keyboard and mouse drivers had to be explicitely used. As proposed in Bug: 321740 I tried to check the showkey -s / -k commands on the console, showed up absolutely nothing. Kept staying empty. Not difference here even after replugging the Cordless Desktop Receiver.
