USB Keyboard Multimedia keys ; two input devices for one keyboard.

Hi. I can't get my multimedia keys to work (Microsoft Wireless Laser Desktop USB keyboard). They don't show up in dmesg, xev, or the command line scan code program at all, even though the standard keys show as usual.

One peculiarity is that the keyboard appears to be mapped to two devices /dev/input/event3 (the standard keys) and /dev/input/event4 (the multimedia keys) ; is there a way to "merge" the two inputs ? Is it a kernel problem ?

TIA, Paul
