On gnome, Desktop->Preferences->Keyboard Shortcuts is very
helpful for
defining these sorts of keys to open email, control volume and
such...but as it appears you're using KDE I don't have
experience with
that so I couldn't tell you where to find an equivalent.


The "i", "mail" and "search" key appears not to generate any
keycodes, atleast nothing happens in "xev" when I push those
keys, same with Display contrast/brightness keys and the
display changer key.



Where are the key definitions stored, is it possible to add
one more keybord to the definition?
Don't know about the "mm-controls", and "Mute" does not work,
although they produce scancode.

Found this while browsing around.
Haven't tested it my self yet.

It seems to be some sort of kernelpatch/driver for various keys.
