Some further notes about Sun type 5 keyboards....
In addition, type 5 keyboards also have a few keys which, by default
under Solaris 2.4, don't have keysyms--in particular, the power
management keys in the top right hand corner.
These keys can also be assigned to actions in fvwm, but they must first
be mapped to keysyms with xmodmap. For instance, I have a file named
".Xmodmap-sun" containing the lines
keycode 52 = IA1
keycode 9 = IA2
keycode 11 = IA3
keycode 55 = IA4
keycode 22 = IA5
By running the command "xmodmap .Xmodmap-sun," the four power management
keys get named IA1 through IA4, and the unlabeled key between "Help" and
"F1" gets named IA5.
I then bind these to actions in my fvwm2 config file:
DestroyFunc StartWorkman
AddToFunc StartWorkman "I" Next [workman] Exec workman -s play
+ "I" None [workman] Exec workman -iconic
Key IA1 A N Exec workman -s pause
Key IA1 A S Function StartWorkman
Key IA2 A N Exec workman -s back
Key IA3 A N Exec workman -s fwd
Key IA4 A N Exec workman -s stop
Key IA4 A S Exec workman -s eject
Key IA5 A N WarpTo FvwmPager 10 10 1
Note that xmodmap only needs to be used for keys which do not have a
keysym; xev will tell you whether a key is bound to a keysym, and gives
you the keycode you need to supply to xmodmap in order to assign one;
however, I believe the five keys above are the only unnamed ones under
Solaris 2.4. If you don't like the names IA1-IA5, the file
<X11/keysymdef.h>, or /usr/lib/X11/XKeysymDB, lists the available keysym
names; pick any that aren't being used. See the man page for xmodmap
for details.
Hope this helps,
