The /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/rules/xorg.xml lists the logicdit in it, but the files: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/rules/xorg /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/rules/xorg.lst /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/symbols/inet do not specify the needed information. I added the following to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/symbols/inet: --- partial alphanumeric_keys xkb_symbols "logicdit" { name[Group1]= "Logitech Cordless Desktop iTouch"; key <I5F> { [ XF86Standby ] }; key <I20> { [ XF86AudioMute ] }; key <I2E> { [ XF86AudioLowerVolume ] }; key <I30> { [ XF86AudioRaiseVolume ] }; key <I22> { [ XF86AudioPlay, XF86AudioPause ] }; key <I24> { [ XF86AudioStop ] }; key <I10> { [ XF86AudioPrev ] }; key <I19> { [ XF86AudioNext ] }; key <I32> { [ XF86HomePage ] }; key <I6C> { [ XF86Mail ] }; key <I65> { [ XF86Search ] }; key <I66> { [ XF86Go ] }; }; --- And did the following modification to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/rules/xorg from: --- rapidaccess rapidaccess2 rapidaccess2a \ ltcd logiaccess logicdp logicdpa logicink logiciink \ logiinkse logiinkseusb logiik itouch \ --- to: --- rapidaccess rapidaccess2 rapidaccess2a \ ltcd logiaccess logicdp logicdpa logicdit logicink logiciink \ logiinkse logiinkseusb logiik itouch \ --- Also modifying the /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb/rules/xorg.lst from: --- logicdpa Logitech Cordless Desktop Pro (alternate option) logiaccess Logitech Access Keyboard --- to: --- logicdpa Logitech Cordless Desktop Pro (alternate option) logicdit Logitech Cordless Desktop iTouch logiaccess Logitech Access Keyboard ---
Is this still relevant in X11R7.0 with xkbdata or xkeyboard-config? If so, someone should check the changes into CVS so it's included in the next release, however that would be much easier if the reporter would attach a unified diff (diff -u) to the bug report as a file attachment, which implements the necessary changes against the current source code (not the files installed on the system). HTH
Personally have changed to a Logitech Media keyboard, which has not either had any sufficient definitions thus far on 6.8 xorg. Will 7.x have definitions in a way or another for my newer keyboard? :)
That depends on wether or not someone who has one of those keyboards, spends the time to add support for their keyboard, creates a unified diff of their changes - against the sources, and submits a bug report with their patch attached. Support is generally added for any type of hardware, either when a vendor wants their hardware supported, or otherwise when someone does the work for themselves, so that their hardware is supported, and submits it properly. I can't imagine random X developers running out to buy one of every keyboard out there for example, just for the priveledge of trying to add support for them all. ;o) Volunteers?
I'm quite willing to contribute my efforts as soon as I have time to install Xorg 7 on my gentoo.
There is logicdit in xkeyboard-config. Since xkbdata is generally not maintained, I am closing this one.
