I have a Microsoft Digital Media Keyboard 3000 and running Ubuntu
Maverick. I have 5 keys that don't work (numbered 1 to 5), you can see
them on a picture of the keyboard
(http://www.apeshop.com.au/images/computers_it/Accessories/Keyboards/MICROSOFT/MS%28MST8485%29.jpg)
When I press these buttons I don't get an event in xev. For the other
special keys there is no issue, for those I always get a keycode.
My keyboard is indentified correctly in dmseg :

This is an example of the xev event for one of the working buttons
(Homepage) :
KeyPress event, serial 35, synthetic NO, window 0x4c00001,
root 0xb3, subw 0x0, time 8752263, (51,103), root:(58,152),
state 0x10, keycode 180 (keysym 0x1008ff18, XF86HomePage), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XFilterEvent returns: False
KeyRelease event, serial 35, synthetic NO, window 0x4c00001,
root 0xb3, subw 0x0, time 8752495, (51,103), root:(58,152),
state 0x10, keycode 180 (keysym 0x1008ff18, XF86HomePage), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XFilterEvent returns: False
I also saw another related bug (#636311), but that seems like a different
problem. I have no issues with my mouse after pressing any special keys.
