Please add a config option to disable/compile out the addon, because may not 
every distribution/user want to use it. 

Btw. I would prefer a solution to allow a GUI application to set the keycodes 
as e.g. the KDE control center.

An other point: have this really to be an addon? The definition of addons is:
"Addons are programs that run for the life time of the device object. ..."
IMO because of this the code should go into a callout and into the tool 
directory in the source tree of HAL instead into a addon.
