"How to manually test this with brightness keys on your laptop: 1. Manually assign keycode In Konsole, execute the following commands: xmodmap -e 'keycode 101 = XF86LaunchD' xmodmap -e 'keycode 212 = XF86LaunchE' 2. Assign some KDE global shortcuts - start System Settings - go to "Keyboard & Mouse", select "Keyboard Shortcuts" section - in "Shortcuts Schemes", check that you are in "Global Shortcuts" tabe - find "Maximize Window" action (in "Windows" section) - select it and in the bottom of screen select "Custom" or click on button with "None" label - dialog will open, now press appropriate brightness key (up or down) - XF86LaunchD or XF86LaunchE should be entered (if not, check step 1.) - click "Apply" button 3. Test newly assigned key - ensure that you have one window set as current - press assigned key -> window should maximize If the first key works, please repeat step 2. and 3. with the second brightness key, to test both xkeysym assignments. When I get some reports (positive or negative), we can debug this further. You can also try to reach me on IRC in #kubuntu-devel - just ping Lure.
