Hello there, I just installed FreeBSD and I love it, the only inconvenience that I have is that the multimedia keys of my keyboard aren't working. I have followed a lot of of guides but still they aren't working nor being recognized. Guides followed: 1)...

the XF86AudioLowerVolume etc. keys don't make it neither into xev not kbdscan. /boot/loader.conf has those acpi_ibm_load="YES" acpi_video_load="YES" i915kms_load="YES" Do I need devd or iichid and what would I configure. E.g. vermaden has some great stuff, but not on those multimedia keys...

HID devices include keyboards, gamepads/joysticks, penpads/touchpads, mice... This can be for any type of HID device, from the old architecture, from x86-input, from the newer driver architecture, from Antimicro or Bluetooth. Any HID that runs on FreeBSD. Even plans on what to do with it. Or...

Enabling usbhid usbhid gives the ability to use newer advanced hid drivers. The ability to use usbhid must be turned on from /boot/loader.conf: hw.usb.usbhid.enable="1" Then, load the driver through /etc/rc.conf: kld_list="usbhid" Turning this module on from /boot/loader.conf won't work. Once...

With the default keyboard layout, the multimedia keys originally work (e.g., volume up/down etc). As soon as I change the layout from US to UK, they no longer work. The events are still being triggered but KDE does not respond to them. Changing the layout back to US doesn't resolve the issue...

I have a Logitech G15 keyboard and it has additional key block (https://secure.logitech.com/assets/28553/28553.png). The problem is they are not uhid compatible, so usbhidctl is not detecting them. Logitech is not shipping drivers for FreeBSD and even with Google help I found no clue how to...

Hello everyone, I have a keyboard with several custom keys on it and I'm wondering if it's possible to use them somehow on FreeBSD. Tried out x11/xev but it does not detect any of the extra keys sadly. Being fairly new to FreeBSD I'm out of ideas, but maybe someone else can help? Regards, Daniel
