Public bug reported:

I have an Acer Extensa 4420 laptop with Ubuntu 8.04. It has a Euro key
that is not only next to the 5 key, but is also an exclusive key above
the arrow keys. When I click it, my /var/log/messages says this:

kernel: [ 1209.761519] atkbd.c: Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 
0xb3 on isa0060/serio0).
kernel: [ 1209.761526] atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e033 <keycode>' to make it 
known.

and repeats it. I guess one set is for key down and another for key up
-- but that's a guess.

I would like to click that key and have it work in Firefox and GNOME
apps, but instead I get nothing and my /var/log/messages has this atkbd
error like you see above.

(As well, it has a $ key next to the arrows as well and because I can
already do Shift 4 to get $, I'd love for that key to display a British
Pound. This would help me a lot when interacting with my European
clients as a PHP web developer.)
