Version: unknown (using KDE 3.1.9) Compiler: gcc version 3.2.3 OS: Linux (i686) release 2.4.20-1-686-smp I have a Logitech Internet Navigator Keyboard. XFree86 4.3 is configured with the keyboard model as Logitech Cordless Desktop Navigator. I use this configuration rather than the "Logitech Internet Navigator Keyboard" configuration because it provides mappings for all the keys on my keyboard. Running 'xev' confirms that X has properly mapped all of the extra keys on my keyboard. There are a certain set of keys that are not recognized when I try to configure an application to use them. They are as follows. sms/messenger keycode 145. XF86Messenger itouch keycode 147, XF86VendorHome shopping keycode 148, XF86Shop new keycode 187, XF86New reply keycode 188, XF86Reply forward keycode 118, XF86MailForward send keycode 119, XF86Send undo keycode 120, Undo redo keycode 121, Redo save keycode 194, XF86Save my doc keycode 196, XF86Documents my pic keycode 215, XF86Pictures my music keycode 216, XF86Music For example. 1) Select 'settings->configure shortcuts' from the kmail menu. 2) Double click the 'About KDE' action. 3) Press the 'Messenger/SMS' button. 4) 'Define Shortcut - KMail' dialog disappears, but the button text remains 'None' and pressing the key does not perform action. This happens with every application I've tried except for kmenuedit. KMenuEdit properly shows and maps these keys.
you're out of luck, our keys guru is on honeymoon :)
These keys can only be used as 'global' shortcuts, and not as normal application shortcuts. A warning should be displayed though to let the user know that the keys won't work. I'll take care of this.
Why are these keys only useable as global shortcuts? Seems to me they should be able to be used however the user wants.

It actually works for me, with Qt-3.2 and both CVS HEAD and KDE-3.1.4.
I have qt-3.1.2 and kde-3.1.4 installed and it definitely does not work for me. So on the basis of l.lunak's comments, this is a Qt bug, which is fixed in qt=>3.2? That doesn't sound right to me.
