key remaps


This perhaps has been asked a lot, but I couldn't google it so far. My IBM T42 comes with not Windows key, but two extra key called "Backward" and "Forward", how can I figure out what keycode they corresponds to and map them as "Windows" key to launch kde menu?

Try xev.

I believe when you run it and press a key while you're focused in that window it will display the event for that key.

Sorry, not running X, but I remember using it for a similar purpose some time ago.
