I found it really easy once I found the built-in instructions. My initial
screen has the options
of "Terminal IDE, Install system, Shutdown, Keyboard, Options, Help." I clicked
on Help and
then Keyboard to read the instructions. Note the "Options" button.
I did a few things. I'm not sure how much of this is necessary but it worked
for me:
1. Enable the Terminal IDE keyboard in Android's settings
2. Enable the keyboard remapping in Options -> External Keyboard Mappings ->
Keyboard Mappings
3. Run the shell from the "Terminal IDE" button
4. Hit Android's Menu button
5. Select "Toggle Options" -> Toggle Key Logger
6. Don't forget to toggle the key logger off later!
7. Follow the directions and run "tail -f ~/.keylog"
8. Hit a key a few times -- try something bening like right ctrl
9. You should see a whole number repeat
10. Toggle that key logger off
11. Back out to the first menu
12. Select Options -> External Keyboard Mappings
13. Find the Left Alt field and enter the whole number
14. You should be able to return to the terminal (without restarting) and it
should work
This all worked on my Galaxy w/ keyboard dock. YMMV

I can confirm the issue, custom key mappings do not seem to work on the
Transformer Prime physical keyboard

Same for Transformer TF101 - Entering keycode as logged does not work.

I can confirm this issue for Transformer Pad TF300T
The keylogger reports that the keycode for the Search key is 84. However,
entering this code into the Hard Mappings does not appear to work. I also
attempted it with the Right Shift (reported as Keycode 60) with the same effect
(or lack thereof)

Confirmed working on Galaxy Tab1(GT-P7510) with cheap no-name bluetooth
keyboard/case purchased onine. Keyboard was missing Page-UP/Page-Down keys and
was forced to use softkeyboard for paging prior to mapping.
A few notes I wanted to share:
- You cannot make maps for key combinations that do not exist ie: shift+arrowUp
or fn+arrowUp if there is no predetermined function to that particular key
combo. The key logger will just display the keycode for shift and arrow
keypress seperatly.
- The Fn (function) key does not even report a keycode and does not modify keys
that do not have a predetermind function.
My particular terminal app that I needed paging via external keyboard did not
have any functions bound to F11 and F12 (fn+volUp and fn+volDown respectively).
Keylog reported these as 141 and 142 and seem to work flawlessly when mapped. I
just wanted to touch on this as I am sure other may try and map non-existant
key combinations with their particular external keyboards. The only Fn keys I
have are ofcourse F1-F12.. all other keys on my particular keyboard model I can
not map as they are standard keys that I use.
