I am an owner of a Microsoft Basic Keyboard Black<\/a>. Yes, I know it’s not the best…but it’s pretty ok for it’s money. As soon as I find some decent amount of money I am going to get this beauty: Cherry CyMotion Master Linux<\/a> \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Anyway…as you can see my MS keyboard has three buttons in the top…Mail, Web\/Home and Search. I was looking forward to using them in linux too, so I started searching. Gentoo Wiki was again the source for what I was looking…
\nSo check this out: http:\/\/gentoo-wiki.com\/HOWTO_Use_Multimedia_Keys<\/p>\n

After setting up .xmodmap, it was time to make fluxbox use them. And here’s my part of .fluxboys\/keys referring to those 3 “new” keys.<\/p>\n


\n None XF86Mail :ExecCommand mrxvt --loginShell
\nNone XF86HomePage :ExecCommand \/usr\/bin\/firefox -P test
\nNone XF86Search :ExecCommand nedit
\nMod4 XF86Mail :ExecCommand xmms --rew
\nMod4 XF86HomePage :ExecCommand xmms --play-pause
\nMod4 XF86Search :ExecCommand xmms --fwd
\nMod1 XF86Mail :ExecCommand amixer sset PCM 2-
\nMod1 XF86HomePage :ExecCommand amixer sset \"Audigy Analog\/Digital Output Jack\" toggle
\nMod1 XF86Search :ExecCommand amixer sset PCM 2+<\/p>\n

<\/code><\/p>\n

I am now able to lauch applications, jump forward and backward tunes in xmms and control the volume of my Audigy2.
\nUnfortunately I couldn’t find a switch to mute Audigy2 and the only “hack”I cound find was to toggle the digital output switch. Since I don’t have digital and analog output together, if I change the switch the sound get muted.<\/p>\n

Have fun with your keys \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
