Public bug reported: Ubuntu 11.04 doesn't understand Word/Excel keys from Chicony KB-0350 keyboard when they are pressed in Keyboard Shortcuts application.
Using instructions from /usr/share/doc/udev/README.keymap.txt.gz I was able to create keymap (attached), but I do not know what to write into /lib/udev/rules.d/95-keymap.rules because my system vendor and product descriptions are empty. As a user I expect to see Chicony KB-0350 among choices in Keyboard Preferences -> Layouts -> Keyboard model. How can I add my model there with a new keymap? Please provide some entrypoints.
