Is it possible to use joystick driver to generate multimedia key
events? I wanted to make i.e. buttons 1 and 3 to be volume up and
volume down like this:
Option "MapButton1" "key=0x1008,0xff13"
Option "MapButton3" "key=0x1008,0xff11"
I got codes 0x1008ff13 and 0x1008ff11 from xev (I didn't found
appropriate constants in /usr/include/X11/keysymdef.h). I tried to put
32-bit numbers, but I got error about this, so i tried the above, but
got nothing. If my approach is wrong, how could I get multimedia key
actions to work with joystick driver?
I'm using Ubuntu 9.04, joystick driver 1.4.0 and XOrg 7.4. I'm
successfully using joystick driver to emulate mouse.
Best regards,
Žarko
