Multimedia Keys

We learned that multimedia keys are available by using showkey. To use it, one has to go to a text terminal, start showkey and press the buttons in question.

The shown keycodes (example X201) should be placed in ~/.Xmodmap

keycode 234 = XF86Back
keycode 233 = XF86Forwardpre
keycode 144 = XF86AudioPrev
keycode 164 = XF86AudioStop
keycode 162 = XF86AudioPlay
keycode 153 = XF86AudioNext
keycode 160 = XF86AudioMute
keycode 174 = XF86AudioLowerVolume
keycode 176 = XF86AudioRaiseVolume

Multimedia Keys for X61 Thinkpads

keycode 113 = Volume Mute
keycode 114 = Volume Down
keycode 115 = Volume Up
keycode 143 = FnKey itsel
keycode 148 = ThinkVantage Button
keycode 152 = ScreenLock (Fn+F2)
keycode 163 = Media Next
keycode 164 = Media Play/Pause
keycode 165 = Media Previous
keycode 166 = Media Stop
keycode 191 = Trackpoint/Touchpad Switch (Fn+F8)
keycode 194 = Dock Eject (Fn+F9)
keycode 224 = Brightness Down
keycode 225 = Brightness Up
keycode 227 = Monitor (Fn+F7)
keycode 236 = Battery (Fn+F3)
keycode 238 = WLAN (Fn+F5)
keycode 372 = Fn+Space

PulseAudio

PulseAudio is a sound system enabling us to control application volumes individually and use other computers soundcards over the network.

Recommended packages:

  • pulseaudio (the daemon, required)
  • pavucontrol (GTK based mixer application)
  • paprefs (GTK based configuration tool)

Note: in order to discover remote soundcards, one has to start avahi-daemon!
