Multimedia Keys Not Recognized

[Shadeclan]

Just found Xion and think it's great! Passed it onto my buddy who thought the same thing!

I don't understand why this problem is occurring. Xion does not recognize my play/pause multimedia key. When I try to set it in Xion's global hot keys, it doesn't show as being pressed. Need some help here!


I am using WinXP fully updated with an MS Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000. All drivers are installed from the CD included with the keyboard.

Wonder if it's a XP thing. On my 7 box it picks up and uses the multimedia keys on my cheap Dell keyboard without any fuss

I would think yours would have no problems. My keyboard has a lot of extra keys for launching apps. The multimedia key on my keyboard must not use the standard protocol - just what you'd expect from MicroSquish. Although I hear that W7 is much leaner and meaner than XP, I am tired of the 18 month planned obsolescence and taxation from the evil shadow government - I am so going to Ubuntu Linux at my first opportunity!



'Course, I'll have to figure out how to run Xion in WINE ...
