some other keys don't work either

okay, it works now. 'options hid_apple fnmode=2' in /etc/modprobe.d/hid_apple.conf was the trick

I have no device with Eject CD button, so maybe somebody who uses this feature can help you somehow.

Keyboard backlight should not be affected by this patched version, it manages rebinds and swaps only.

correct, but when i install pommed, the keyboard backlight works. :D

Is there a way to find unknown keys? does xev output anything that helps?

what is 'KeymapNotify event, serial 48' ?

why is no KeyPress and KeyRelease event? like the other function keys?
