using volume (and other) keyboard buttons

[David T-G]

Hi, all --

I have a new e-machines desktop (hey, it was the cheapest thing we could
find! :-) whose keyboard has extra Windows buttons on it for volume, CD
control, and various aps.

Can I map those so that they change my system volume (including mute) and
perhaps even fire off selected programs (probably via wrappers)?  I
imagine how I could get the key sequence (though I haven't tired it yet,
and I don't know if they will map like regular or function keys), but
then making thoses sequences execute KDE functions is beyond me.


TIA & HAND

:-D
